The Anglepoise Type 75: Common Questions

What is the Anglepoise Type 75 desk lamp?
The Type 75 is a British-designed balanced-arm task lamp by Sir Kenneth Grange for Anglepoise — the London firm founded in 1932 that patented the original constant-tension spring mechanism. It ships with a lightbulb and Anglepoise's lifetime guarantee, part of the brand's Certified B Corporation range built to be repaired for decades.

Who designed the Type 75?
Sir Kenneth Grange, the British industrial designer behind the InterCity 125 train and Kenwood Chef, designed the Type 75 for Anglepoise. The design extends the balanced-arm lineage of George Carwardine's Original 1227 (1935), now held in the permanent collections of the V&A and MoMA.

Is the Type 75 repairable?
Yes. Anglepoise stocks replacement parts and offers a lifetime guarantee on every Type 75. The lamp is designed with modular components so springs, shades, and arms can be serviced individually rather than requiring the whole lamp to be replaced.

Care Guide +

Your Anglepoise® lamp is a finely balanced product. To adjust the balance, place the lamp
on a level surface and carefully tighten the thumbwheels until the shade and arms support themselves in multiple positions. If further adjustment is required, use the hex keys to tighten the centre joint. To avoid damage caused by excessive force, we ask that you treat your lamp with due care. Prior to cleaning or maintenance, always switch off and disconnect the lamp from the electricity supply.
