Specifically for processing of complete or pre-shredded tires.
Virtus Equipment’s Industrial Tire Recycling Shredders are heavy-duty single-shaft shredders designed specifically to process whole tires and tire components efficiently. Built for reliable high-throughput operation, these shredders reduce tire volume and prepare rubber and steel components for downstream recycling processes such as granulation, separation, and material reuse.
Shredder Process
These shredders are designed to handle a range of tire-related waste materials, including:
Virtus Equipment’s Industrial Tire Recycling Shredders deliver robust shredding performance, specifically engineered for tough tire materials. With heavy-duty construction, adjustable cutting systems, and consistent feeding mechanisms, these shredders help recycling operations reduce tire waste quickly and reliably — making them ideal for plants focused on rubber recycling, steel separation, and material reuse.
Virtus Equipment supplies Industrial Tire Recycling Shredders throughout the United States, backed by technical consultation, machine configuration support, installation assistance, and aftermarket services. Our nationwide support network ensures responsive service, reliable performance, and long-term productivity for tire recycling operations and industrial waste processors across the country.
The T-series Industrial Tire Recycling Shredders are single-shaft shredder is specially designed to process complete or pre-shredded tires. It features a 750 mm diameter hard-faced rotor with special knives and wear plates made of highly wear-resistant steel. The shredder is available in rotor widths from 1500 mm to 3000 mm. They are driven by twin gear drives with oversized outboard bearings. The tangential infeed ensures optimal feeding of the tires while eliminating the need for a hydraulic feeding system. The T-series differ from our other shredders in the number of stator knives and the screen sizes used. Its modular design makes it easy to integrate the shredder into existing installations.

An Industrial Tire Recycling Shredder is a heavy-duty machine designed to process complete or pre-shredded tires into smaller, manageable pieces for recycling. Virtus Equipment’s T-Series Shredders efficiently separate rubber and steel, creating high-quality output for further processing or reuse.
The T-Series Shredders feature a large 750 mm diameter rotor, proprietary knife design, and wear-resistant steel construction for maximum durability. They deliver high throughput rates, low maintenance requirements, and superior separation of steel and rubber, making them ideal for demanding tire recycling operations.
The T-Series uses a variable knife gap and optimized cutting design to effectively separate steel and rubber during shredding. When paired with a 20 mm screen, the resulting material allows for easy magnetic separation of steel in downstream processes, improving recycling efficiency.
