I am a consultant looking to identify asbestos (or not) in the safe
walls...can't resell the items (there are four) without knowledge of the
potential for asbestos inside.

So, say there is asbestos. What happens if you are wrong and there is
not asbestos?

Why don't you ask Diebold?

Nothing happens other than excessive disposal cost - unless the unit is
resold for use, then there is no problem whatsoever. If, however, it goes
the other way(saying there's none and there really is some), then there
could be significant fines and jail time if someone opens the walls and
gets exposed.

Let me know what you find out, I also have a diebold data safe that I
mean to offer for sale.

I believe that they all use drywall type material instead of
asbestos. Drywall gypsum has better heat resistance, because it can
absorb a lot of heat while thermally disintegrating. It does not
really need asbestos.

Ig,
It's true that asbestos is not required for the insulative qualities.
However, in a lot of older gypsum-lined apparatus that would be exposed
to heat, they used chopped asbestos fiber to reinforce the poured gypsum,
so that it would not crack during curing, oven drying, and handling.

Cracks would condemn the safe in a fire; very quickly, actually.

Umm... Diebold is a huge, publically-traded multinational company. Have you
called the main number on the website:

I'd call Diebold. As far as I know, they are still in the
ATM business, at least. I suspect they HAVE to answer such
questions by law. "Data safe" sounds like it is for protecting
computer media, and therefor is probably fairly recent, so it has
a good chance to be asbestos-free.

Data safes are awesome. They are much better protected against fire,
than regular safes. Mine is rated for reaching only 150 degrees inside
after being in fire for 2 hours.

Thank you for the contact us page on their website - I am currently
awaiting a response from Diebold directly via the internet, since their
main number was not answered when I called several times.

Here's a general tip for what to do when a large company doesn't respond to a "normal" contact: Search on their web site for the corporate governance office or the investor relations office. In my experience, these phones ALWAYS get answered, and usually by someone who is more than happy to connect you to the right department.

In this case:
INVESTOR CONTACTS
Primary IR Contact
Investor Relations Department 9-B-16
Diebold
5995 Mayfair Road
North Canton, OH 44720
Phone: 1-800-766-5859
Outside the U.S.:330-490-3790

I finally found a phone number that works. Diebold says (according to
their legal department) they never knowingly used asbestos in their
products, but if your going to scrap the item, proceed as if asbestos is
present.

Thank you for the contact number (I was unable to find it on the
internet), it worked beautifully!!

Diebold says they never knowingly used asbestos in their products, but if
you're going to damage the integrity (like would happen at a scrap yard)
then you should proceed as if asbestos is present.

Thanks again!

That's a non-answer. Actually they do know if asbestos was an
ingredient in the insulating plaster. What they don't know is how much
asbestos came in other ingredients.

When I was selling a house many years back, the buyer's broker wanted
me to certify that the house had no UFFI in the walls. I declined to
sign, because while I had seen no UFFI, I had and did not plan to open
up all the walls and inspect for UFFI. Legally, my answer was
"unknown", and there is no legal duty to investigate. The broker
backed down.

I don't think it's required to open the walls to be exposed. According to
lawyers statements I've read, just operating the safe could lead to exposure
in high doses due to pressure release upon operation.
