Kobra 300.1 Classic C2 Heavy Duty P5 Micro Cut Shredder, 99.924

Kobra 300.1 C2 P5 Micro Cut Continuous Duty Shredder – 10 Sheet Capacity, 110L Bin & UK Government Approved

Why this P5 shredder suits security-conscious shared offices

The Kobra 300.1 C2 is a professional micro cut shredder designed for medium-sized offices and shared departments handling sensitive and highly confidential information. Its fine P5 cutting mechanism reduces documents to 1.9 × 15mm particles, providing substantially greater protection than conventional cross cut shredders while retaining practical capacity for regular workplace use.

A wide 310mm feed opening, large 110-litre cabinet and 24-hour continuous-duty motor support repeated shredding throughout the working day. Carbon-hardened steel cutting knives and Kobra's heavy duty chain drive with steel gears provide the robust construction required for dependable professional use.

• Motor thermal protection helps guard against overheating
• Powerful 600W motor supports regular professional use

Continuous-duty operation makes the 300.1 C2 particularly useful in shared workplaces where sensitive documents should be destroyed promptly rather than accumulated while waiting for a shredder to cool down.

Kobra Chain Drive & Steel Gears for Added Toughness

A significant advantage of the Kobra 300.1 C2 is its heavy duty chain drive with steel gears. Unlike shredders that use plastic gearing within the drive mechanism, Kobra's Super Potential Power System transfers power to the cutting head through durable metal components.

• Provides strong and consistent power transmission to the cutting mechanism
• Increased resistance to wear during frequent and demanding use
• Avoids reliance on less durable plastic gearing
• Supports continuous-duty operation and the fine P5 cutting mechanism
• Designed for dependable long-term operation

This robust drive construction is a distinctive Kobra feature and contributes significantly to the machine's toughness, durability and reliability.

310mm Feed Opening for Flexible Document Handling

The generous 310mm feed opening provides more working width than a conventional A4 office shredder, making everyday document presentation straightforward and accommodating wider paper formats where required.

• Comfortably accommodates standard A4 paperwork
• Provides additional width for larger document formats
• Useful for shared and departmental shredding environments
• Supports convenient document feeding during regular shredding sessions
