HEAVY DUTY OFFICE SHREDDERS
STRIP CUT
AMS-50 | AMS-75 | AMS-100 | AMS-150
Heavy duty office shredders are available in four models that range from 1/2 to 1-1/2 horsepower. The motor is chain driven and their rugged, all-steel construction allows for decades of reliable service.
Heavy duty office shredders have parts that are manufactured within precise tolerances, thereby ensuring minimal lifetime maintenance costs. The precision-ground, alloy steel cutters are durable enough to shred large paper clips and staples.
Heavy duty office shredders include industrial casters as well as positive overload protection. This current sensing relay automatically shuts down the shredder in the event of a jam.
Heavy duty office shredders look identical, but each successive model has more power, a larger drive and greater shredding capacity. All components, including shafts, cutters and bearings, are sized for the largest horsepower in the series.

Testimonial
“We own three AMS-150 shredders and bought our first one over 20 years ago. To our dismay, it fell down a flight of cement stairs when we relocated. Ameri-Shred said to plug it in, while they held on the line, and it started right up. It is indestructible.”
“We are a shredder dealer in central California that has used the same AMS-100 as a rental machine for thirty years. It has been in and out of wagons and pickups but it still runs like the day we purchased it. This is a great, powerful tool.”
“We own a state-of-the-art, live a long time, AMS-150 shredder. It is over 15 years old and has never needed a part until today. The start and reverse switch won’t stay on, but one email to Ameri-Shred resulted in an $80 part shipping out the same day.”
