Discharge grates are provided for disposing of the scrap metal through discharge outlets for the hammer mill.

A plurality of caps are circumferentially located around each disc and attached thereto for protecting the disc against excessive wear. A dual feed roller feeds the scrap metal to the hammer mill to be shredded.
