Description
The ZBS 850 Shredder Screen is an OEM-specification replacement screen for Virtus Equipment and ZERMA America ZBS 850 shredders. The shredder screen controls the maximum output particle size — material continues to circulate through the cutting chamber until pieces are small enough to pass through the screen perforations, ensuring consistent, controlled output size for downstream processing or further size reduction.

Standard and Old Style Available: Both standard and old style screen configurations are available for the ZBS 850 — verify your machine’s build style before ordering.
High-Torque Shredder Compatible: Engineered to withstand the high cutting forces and material loading of the ZBS 850 low-speed, high-torque E-type rotor shredder.
Output Size Control: Screen hole size determines maximum output particle size — critical for ensuring consistent feed quality for downstream granulators or processing equipment.
Direct OEM Replacement: Precision-manufactured to original equipment specifications for guaranteed fitment and consistent shredder output quality.
The ZBS 850 is a low-speed, high-torque shredder equipped with an E-type square rotor working in opposition with stationary stator knives to reduce bulky plastic parts, production waste, pipes, profiles, and mixed recycling material. The ZBS 850 is the larger of the ZBS series machines, generating higher cutting forces than the ZBS 600 and handling a greater feed volume per cycle. The screen plays a critical role in controlling the output size and ensuring consistent feed quality for downstream granulators or other processing equipment.
Important: The ZBS 850 screen is available in both standard and old style configurations. Verify your machine’s build style before ordering to ensure correct fitment. If you are unsure which style your machine requires, contact us with your machine serial number and we will confirm the correct screen.
Screens are wear components that require regular inspection. A damaged or blinded screen reduces shredder throughput, increases energy consumption, and can cause output size inconsistency. Replace at the first signs of wear, cracking, or perforation damage.
