Default Fellowes P400C shredder gear replacement


wrote in message
oups.com...
Hello,

Does anybody know of a good source of gears for Fellowes paper
shredders. I called
Fellowes Customer Support this morning. They do not sell parts for this
particular
shredder. I hate to toss it out. The shredder has a 1/8 HP AC motor in
it.

The 2" (rough diameter) nylon gear has a couple of teeth broken off it.
I doubt one could use something to "fill in" the missing gears like JB
weld as the mechanical motion might break off the replacement teeth.
Or maybe this would work? Thoughts?

Can anyone recommend a 3rd party Fellowes gear manufacturer that would
sell a gear compatible with the P400C? I don't have a count of the
number of teeth/pitch of the gear, but I could check.

Thanks
Mike McWhinney
