Kobra 260.1 Classic HS Heavy Duty P6 Crypto Cut Shredder, 99.920

Kobra 260.1 HS P6 High Security Continuous Duty Shredder – 80L Bin & NPSA Rated

Why this larger P6 shredder suits demanding high-security workplaces

The Kobra 260.1 HS is a professional high-security shredder designed for medium-sized offices, government departments and security-conscious organisations handling exceptionally sensitive paperwork. Its ultra-fine P6 cutting system reduces each sheet into approximately 10,000 tiny particles, making reconstruction exceptionally difficult.

The 260.1 HS has a 260mm feed opening and substantial 80-litre waste cabinet while retaining Kobra's 24-hour continuous duty motor, carbon-hardened cutting knives and distinctive heavy duty chain drive with steel gears.

P6 High Security Destruction for Highly Sensitive Information

Security level P6 high security shredding to 0.8 × 9.5mm particles – designed for exceptionally sensitive and highly confidential information where very high levels of document destruction are required.

• Reduces each sheet into approximately 10,000 extremely small particles
• Shreds up to 5 sheets of A4 paper at a time
• Suitable for highly sensitive commercial, financial, government, defence and security-related information
• Designed for documents where reconstruction must be made exceptionally difficult
• Also destroys payment cards, chip cards and suitable film materials

The fine P6 particle size deliberately prioritises document security over sheet capacity. This machine is therefore intended for applications where the sensitivity of the information being destroyed is more important than maximum throughput.

NPSA Rated for UK Government Use

The Kobra 260.1 HS is NPSA rated and approved for UK Government use, providing a recognised high-security solution for organisations that require controlled destruction of particularly sensitive paper records.

• Suitable for government and security-conscious public sector environments
• Provides substantially greater document destruction than standard P4 and P5 office shredders
• Suitable for organisations handling information subject to stringent internal security controls
• Security classification: P6 / T6 / F3

Continuous-Duty Performance for Secure Shredding Throughout the Day

• 24-hour continuous duty motor – no timed duty cycle or scheduled cool-down period
• Allows sensitive paperwork to be destroyed immediately whenever required
• Motor thermal protection helps guard against overheating
• Carbon-hardened steel cutting knives provide durable long-term performance
• Cutting knives are designed to withstand standard staples and paperclips
• High-precision cutting system produces the extremely fine P6 particle size with efficient power consumption

Continuous-duty operation is particularly useful in secure environments where confidential documents should be destroyed promptly rather than retained while waiting for a shredder to cool down.

Heavy Duty Chain Drive & Steel Gears for Long-Term Reliability

A significant advantage of the Kobra 260.1 HS is its heavy duty chain drive with steel gears. Unlike shredders that use plastic gearing within the drive mechanism, Kobra's robust power transmission system uses durable metal components to drive the high-security cutting head.

• Provides strong and consistent power transmission to the cutting mechanism
• Offers increased resistance to wear during frequent professional use
• Avoids reliance on less durable plastic gearing
• Supports the demanding ultra-fine P6 cutting mechanism
• Designed to provide dependable long-term operation in security-conscious workplaces

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

Automatic Controls for Straightforward High-Security Shredding
