STALEKS EXPERT 20 Straight mineral nail file grit 150/180, the professional file for a precise shaping and a careful finish
STALEKS EXPERT 20 Straight mineral nail file grit 150/180 is a professional file designed for the filing, refining and preparation of the nails during manicure and pedicure services. Thanks to its double 150/180 abrasiveness, it offers an excellent balance between efficiency and gentleness. The 150 grit makes it possible to correct the shape, refine a build or work artificial nails with control, while the 180 grit brings a softer finish, ideal for preparing the plate or smoothing the contours before applying a base, a gel polish, a gel or a top coat. This Staleks Expert mineral file is a must-have for nail technicians, nail artists, beauticians and professionals looking for a reliable, hygienic and pleasant-to-use consumable.
A versatile professional file for manicure and pedicure
The STALEKS EXPERT 20 file grit 150/180 is perfectly suited to services that require precise, gradual and clean work. It can be used to adjust the free edge, refine a shape, correct a small irregularity, prepare a surface before a set or finalise a build already worked with a stronger grit. Its balanced abrasiveness makes it particularly practical for the steps of intermediate finishing and preparation.
The 150 grit is suited to controlled corrections on artificial nails, gel, acrygel or tips. It makes it possible to smooth a build, rework the parallels or refine an architecture without removing the material too abruptly. The 180 grit, softer, is ideal for the more delicate finishes, the preparation of resistant natural nails and the work of the free edge. This combination makes the file a very comfortable tool for daily services in the salon.
A straight shape for a neat work of the free edge
The straight shape of the STALEKS EXPERT 20 makes it possible to structure the free edge with precision. It helps obtain a regular line, correct the length and work the classic shapes such as the square, the rounded square, the oval, the almond or the ballerina. This shape is very appreciated by professionals, because it offers a good stability during filing and makes it possible to easily control the symmetry of the set.
During a manicure or a pedicure, a well-executed shaping directly influences the final result. A line that is too irregular or a poorly prepared surface can be seen after applying the colour or the top coat. With this professional mineral file, the work becomes more regular, more comfortable and more precise, even during small last-minute touch-ups.

For which services should you use a 150/180 grit file?
The 150/180 grit is particularly useful for services where one wants to refine and prepare without filing too intensely. It suits very well light corrections after a gel or acrygel build, the final shaping of extensions, the work of the free edge and the preparation before colour. It can also be used to soften the contours after a first correction carried out with a stronger grit.
This file is ideal for refills, build finishes, preparations before gel polish, light corrections and natural shapings. The 150 side makes it possible to keep a good efficiency on the material, while the 180 side brings a softer transition before polishing, the base or the finish. For thin or fragile nails, it is important to work with delicacy and favour light gestures.
Recommended instructions for use
- Observe the nail: check the length, the shape, the thickness and the general condition of the plate before starting.
- Choose the right grit: use the 150 grit to refine or correct, then the 180 grit to smooth and prepare.
- Work the free edge: use the straight shape to obtain a neat, regular and symmetrical line.
- Correct the sides: adjust the parallels with soft and controlled gestures.
- Refine the surface: gently pass over the areas that require a preparation before the set.
- Limit the pressure: let the abrasive work without pressing excessively, especially on natural nails.
- Dust off regularly: remove the filing dust to check the shape and the volumes.
- Complete if necessary: use a buffer for an even smoother surface before the finish.
- Dispose of after use: this file is single use and must be replaced after each client.
Professional tips for a soft and controlled filing
To obtain a clean result, use the STALEKS EXPERT 20 grit 150/180 with regular and light movements. The 150 grit makes it possible to rework a shape without removing too much material, while the 180 grit is perfect for softening the lines and preparing a smoother surface. This combination is very pleasant for services where one looks for a neat, natural and elegant finish.
On a gel or acrygel set, start by refining the volumes with the 150 side, then move on to the 180 side to smooth the worked areas. On natural nails, favour the 180 side and a very soft pressure. For a square shape, keep the file well parallel to the free edge. For an almond or oval shape, follow the curve of the nail with supple gestures. A regular dusting makes it possible to better visualise the result and avoid asymmetries.
Hygiene and single use
The STALEKS EXPERT 20 mineral file grit 150/180 is designed for single use. This characteristic is essential to respect the hygiene standards in the salon, the institute or during home services. Each client thus benefits from a clean, new and high-performing file. After the service, the file must be discarded in order to limit the risks of cross-contamination.
Single use is also practical for professionals. It makes it possible to work with an always fresh, regular and pleasant-to-use abrasive. The file keeps all its efficiency during the service and reinforces the image of a clean, organised and professional service.
A balanced file for a neat and professional finish
STALEKS EXPERT 20 Straight mineral nail file grit 150/180 is a professional file perfect for refining, smoothing, slightly correcting and preparing the nails before the finish.

It offers precise work on artificial nails, while allowing a softer preparation on resistant natural nails. With the Staleks Expert file 150/180, every shaping becomes cleaner, more comfortable and more elegant, for nails perfectly prepared before the colour, the base or the top coat.
