Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 14.87 need bags at all if it has a baler?
Yes, though fewer of them. The 14.87 pairs a shredder with a baling press, and the press compacts the bulk of the output into strapped bales. Bags still serve the container side of the machine and any output handled outside the baling cycle. intimus lists PB9 against the 14.87 for that reason.
Will PB9 fit my 16.86 shredder-baler?
We cannot confirm it, and we would rather say so than guess. intimus's compatibility table for PB9 lists a 16.87; our own catalogue lists the 16.86. Those may be the same machine recorded two different ways, or they may not. Send us the model and serial from the plate and we will confirm with intimus before you commit to a case.
How many bags come in a case?
50. All the intimus industrial bag parts — PB6, PB7 and PB9 — are supplied in fifties, as against the 100-count cases used for the office-machine bags PB3, PB4 and PB11.
What is the difference between PB9 and PB7?
They fit different machines. PB7 is the 16.50 series bag; PB9 covers the 14.95 and 14.87. intimus makes the distinction explicitly on the PB9 product page. They are not interchangeable — the containers differ in footprint, and a bag that does not seat on the rim gets pulled into the waste as the container fills.
