The LEITZ 5180 Heavy Duty Hole Punch is a reliable and efficient office tool designed for daily document management and high-volume paper organization tasks. Built with a robust pressed steel construction and finished in a professional blue color, this heavy duty hole punch ensures long-lasting durability in busy workspaces.

The practical lever can be locked down for convenient storage when not in use.

Advantages

This heavy duty hole punch stands out due to its impressive capacity of up to 65 sheets of standard 80gsm paper, making large document binding preparation fast and effortless. The integrated click-stop guide bar guarantees precise alignment, ensuring uniform hole placement across all your documents. Safety and convenience are further enhanced by the stable non-slip plastic base, which prevents movement on the desk surface, and the hinged translucent waste box that allows you to monitor paper waste levels easily. Additionally, the lock-down lever mechanism saves valuable desk or drawer space during storage.

• Preparing reports and presentations in school or university environments
• Daily administrative paperwork management
• Archiving tasks requiring standard two-hole binding

It is also not suitable for binding methods that require more than two holes simultaneously without manual repositioning.
