P-48C specifications

The Fellowes P-48C is a compact and user-friendly paper shredder designed to enhance office productivity and ensure data security. This model is particularly suitable for home offices and small businesses, delivering reliable performance when it comes to shredding sensitive documents.

One of the key features of the Fellowes P-48C is its ability to shred up to 8 sheets of paper at once. This helps to streamline the document disposal process, allowing users to efficiently handle their shredding tasks without the need to feed documents one at a time. The P-48C utilizes cross-cut technology, transforming paper into tiny confetti-like pieces. This method not only protects confidential information but also makes it difficult for anyone to reconstruct shredded documents.

The Fellowes P-48C is equipped with a powerful motor that ensures continuous operation for up to 5 minutes before needing a 30-minute cool-down period. This is an essential feature for users who may need to shred larger quantities of paper in a short time frame. The shredder can handle a variety of materials, including credit cards, staples, and paper clips, making it a versatile tool for any office environment.

Safety is a priority with the Fellowes P-48C, which includes the patented Safety Lock feature that prevents accidental shredding. This is particularly useful in homes with children or shared office spaces. Users can easily engage or disengage the safety lock to offer an added layer of security.

The shredder's 4.5-gallon waste bin conveniently holds a significant amount of shredded material, reducing the frequency of emptying it. The bin can easily be accessed through the top lid, making disposal a hassle-free experience. Furthermore, the P-48C operates quietly, minimizing distractions in the workspace.

The Fellowes P-48C combines practicality with efficiency, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a reliable shredder that caters to their document destruction needs. Its compact design allows it to fit easily into tight spaces, and its user-oriented features enhance both usability and safety.
