Description

Dahle 20722 is Dahle's standard shredder oil in bulk: four 1-gallon bottles in one box. It is the same high-cling, low-residue oil sold in 12 oz bottles as part 20721, packed for sites that keep several oil-using Dahle shredders running or refill automatic-oiler reservoirs often. You pay less per ounce and place fewer orders.

Dahle shredders that take 20722 oil

Dahle states the oil suits every Dahle shredder that needs lubrication. In the current range, that is:

  • Cabinet shredders with an automatic oiler, namely the 40330, 40334, 40430, 40434, 40530, 40534, 20392, 20394 and 20396
  • The oiled CleanTEC® group, namely the 41334, 41434, 41534, 51322, 51422, 51472, 51522 and 51572
  • The PowerTEC® 707 PS

Machines to keep it away from

Dahle's oil-free shredders are built to run dry and gain nothing from oil. That group covers the 50310, 50314, 50410, 50414, 50464, 50514, 50564 and 52214, the CleanTEC® 51314, 51414, 51464, 51514 and 51564, the ShredMATIC® auto-feed models and all PaperSAFE® units. For the PowerTEC® 747 CS, use the high viscosity 20719 oil.

Working with gallon bottles

Pouring from a gallon jug straight into a feed opening is hard to control. Fill a small squeeze bottle for hand oiling, or use the gallon directly to refill EvenFlow Lubricator® reservoirs. Apply a thin line across the entire opening, then reverse the shredder briefly to spread it. Keep sealed bottles upright in a cool place, and buy to match how fast you actually use oil, since Dahle publishes no shelf life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Dahle 20722 the same oil as the 20721?

Yes, the oil is identical; only the packaging differs. The 20722 box holds four 1-gallon bottles and the 20721 holds six 12 oz bottles. Pick the gallon format if you service several machines or refill oiler reservoirs, and the small bottles if you oil one shredder by hand.

Which Dahle shredders should never get 20722 oil?

The oil-free ones. That means the 50310, 50314, 50410, 50414, 50464, 50514, 50564 and 52214, the oil-free CleanTEC 51314, 51414, 51464, 51514 and 51564, both ShredMATIC models and all PaperSAFE shredders. Their cutters are designed to run without lubricant, and oil only leaves a residue that holds dust.

What is the easiest way to use oil from a 1-gallon bottle?

Decant it into a small applicator bottle for hand oiling, which lets you lay a thin, even line across the feed opening before running the shredder in reverse for a few seconds. For automatic-oiler models, the gallon bottle is well suited to refilling the reservoir directly.

How long does Dahle 20722 shredder oil keep?

Dahle does not publish a shelf life, so we cannot give a date. Keeping the bottles sealed, upright and away from heat is the best way to preserve them. Order quantities in line with your consumption rather than building a large stockpile.

Can I buy a single gallon of Dahle shredder oil?

Not under this part number; the 20722 ships only as a box of four gallon bottles, weighing 32 lb. If that is more than you need, the 20721 box of six 12 oz bottles is the smaller option.
