Product Information

Full details

The Leitz 180° Plastic Lever Arch File is an essential organizational tool for students, office professionals, and home users who manage high volumes of A4 documentation. Its standout feature is a patented 180-degree opening mechanism that allows for effortless filing from both sides, significantly improving efficiency. While it offers superior durability and capacity, the 80mm spine width requires substantial shelf space, making it better suited for permanent storage than for portable use.

FAQs

How many sheets can this file hold?

It can comfortably hold up to 600 sheets of A4 80gsm paper.

What is the benefit of the 180-degree mechanism?

It allows the rings to open 50% wider than standard files, letting you file from both sides and add or remove pages more easily.

Are the covers water-resistant?

The covers are made of polypropylene, which is water-resistant and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

Does this file come with a label?

It features a spine label holder, allowing you to insert your own customized labels for easy identification.

Can I use this for non-A4 sized paper?

While designed for A4, smaller documents can be stored if placed inside protective A4 pockets, though they may not align with the standard two-hole punch.

What is the spine width?

The spine width is 80mm (8cm).

Troubleshooting

Mechanism feels stiff or difficult to open

Ensure the folder is lying flat on a hard surface when operating the 180-degree mechanism to prevent torque.

Label holder is peeling off

Ensure the cover is free of oils or dust before applying a new label; use a small amount of adhesive if necessary.

Paper edges getting bent

Verify that your paper stack is neatly aligned before closing the lever to prevent the edges from catching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Patented 180-degree mechanism simplifies adding or removing pages
  • Large 600-sheet capacity reduces the number of binders needed
  • Durable polypropylene cover is moisture-resistant and easy to clean
  • Long-lasting prong alignment verified through extensive stress testing
  • Metal-reinforced corners provide excellent shelf-life durability

Cons

  • Requires 80mm of horizontal shelf space per binder
  • Not intended for frequent transport in backpacks
  • May be overkill for small filing projects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply push the lever to unlock the mechanism, insert your A4 papers, and push the lever down to secure the rings. Ensure your documents are pre-punched with a standard two-hole puncher. To maintain the life of the binder, avoid overfilling beyond the 600-sheet limit, as this can put unnecessary stress on the lever mechanism. For long-term storage, use the spine label holder to categorize by date or subject. If the polypropylene cover gets dirty, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe it down; avoid using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the plastic or damage the adhesive of the label holder.
