Kobra 400 C4 High Performance P4 Cross Cut Shredder, 99.591

Kobra 400 C4 P4 Heavy Duty Cross Cut Shredder – 42 Sheet Capacity & 200L Bin

Why this high-capacity P4 shredder suits centralised office use

The Kobra 400 C4 is a heavy duty professional cross cut shredder designed for large offices, busy departments and centralised shredding points processing substantial quantities of confidential paperwork. Its capacity of up to 42 sheets at 80gsm combines with an exceptionally wide 400mm feed opening and substantial 200-litre cabinet for efficient high-volume document destruction.

A powerful 2100W continuous-duty motor supports prolonged everyday use, while carbon-hardened steel cutters and Kobra's heavy duty chain drive with steel gears provide the robust construction required for demanding professional operation. Automatic electronic controls, Energy Smart power management and comprehensive safety functions help make this a practical shared shredder for busy working environments.

P4 Cross Cut Security with High 42-Sheet Capacity

Security level P4 cross cut shredding to 3.9 × 40mm particles – ideal for general commercial, financial, HR, student and patient data, for example.

• Shreds up to 40–42 sheets of A4 paper at 80gsm in a single pass
• Produces 3.9 × 40mm cross cut particles
• Suitable for confidential everyday business paperwork and personal information
• Carbon-hardened cutters are unaffected by standard staples and paperclips
• Combines P4 security with unusually high throughput for a cross cut shredder

The combination of a high sheet capacity and P4 document security makes the 400 C4 particularly suitable where substantial quantities of confidential paperwork need to be destroyed efficiently by several users or departments.

2100W Continuous-Duty Motor for Demanding Workloads

The Kobra 400 C4 is powered by a substantial 2100W 24-hour continuous-duty motor, allowing repeated and prolonged shredding without the timed cool-down periods associated with lighter office machines.

• 24-hour continuous-duty operation
• No scheduled duty cycle or timed cool-down period
• Powerful 2100W motor supports the high sheet capacity
• Motor thermal protection helps guard against overheating
• Suitable for sustained departmental and centralised use

This makes the 400 C4 particularly suitable for shared shredding points where confidential material needs to be destroyed throughout the working day.

Kobra Chain Drive & Steel Gears for Heavy Duty Reliability

A significant advantage of the Kobra 400 C4 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 the powerful 2100W motor and high-capacity P4 cutting mechanism
• Designed for dependable long-term professional operation

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

400mm Feed Opening for A4, A3 & Wide Documents

The exceptionally wide 400mm feed opening provides considerably greater working width than a conventional office shredder and is particularly useful for larger-format paperwork.

• Comfortably accommodates standard A4 paperwork
• Suitable for A3 documents without folding
• Accommodates wide-format computer printouts and similar paperwork
• Provides convenient document presentation during bulk shredding sessions

The wide feed opening complements the machine's high sheet capacity and makes the 400 C4 particularly practical for centralised document disposal.

Handles Paper, Cards, Optical Media & USB Drives

The heavy duty main cutting mechanism is designed to destroy a broad range of office materials in addition to paper.

• Paper
• Payment cards
• Chip payment cards
• Suitable film material
• CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray discs
• Floppy disks
• USB pen drives
• Standard staples and paperclips

These materials are processed by the standard heavy duty cutting mechanism. A separate dedicated media cutting unit is not required for the machine to destroy these materials.

Automatic Electronic Controls for Straightforward Shared Operation

The Kobra 400 C4 uses automatic electronic controls to simplify operation at a busy shared shredding point.

• Automatic start and stop through electronic sensors
• Automatic reverse in the event of a paper jam
• Automatic stop when the waste compartment is full
• Electronic door safety system stops operation when the cabinet is opened
• Motor thermal protection supports safe continuous-duty operation
• Illuminated indicators show Energy Smart standby status

Energy Smart Power Saving Between Shredding Jobs

Kobra's Energy Smart system reduces unnecessary electricity consumption while this powerful shredder is not being used.

• Automatically enters power-saving standby when shredding has finished
• Reduces electricity consumption while the machine is waiting to be used
• Illuminated optical indicators show when power-saving standby is active
• Automatically returns to operation when material is inserted
• Particularly useful for a centralised machine that remains available throughout the working day

200-Litre Steel Cabinet for High-Volume Confidential Shredding

• Very large 200-litre waste capacity
• Designed to accommodate the substantial output generated by the high-capacity cross cut mechanism
• Reduces the frequency of emptying during prolonged shredding sessions
• Strong steel cabinet designed for professional workplace use
• Mounted on castors for easier movement and positioning
• Automatic stop when the waste compartment is full
