Garner Model 105A – High-Security Data Degausser & Demagnetizer

When sensitive information must be erased beyond recovery, the Garner Model 105A Degausser is the system trusted by government agencies, defense contractors, healthcare networks, and Fortune 500 enterprises. Built for industrial-strength performance, the 105A unleashes a magnetic field so powerful that it permanently scrambles the magnetic domains of hard drives, backup tapes, and other storage media, ensuring that not a single byte of data can ever be recovered.

At HiTechTrader, we make this uncompromising level of data protection accessible without the premium price tag of brand-new equipment. Every Garner 105A unit we offer is refurbished, tested, and performance-verified to meet strict operational standards. That means you gain sub-3-second erase cycles, proven compatibility with both legacy and modern media, and the long service life expected from industrial-grade data sanitization systems, all at exceptional value. Whether you're handling HIPAA compliance in healthcare, securing financial records, or meeting classified military standards, our units deliver both the assurance of total data destruction and the economic advantage of smart equipment sourcing.
