  • For all Paterson System 4 tanks: The reel fits into the Universal Tank and all Multi-Reel sizes (see compatibility).
  • For Graflex Speed Graphic and Crown Graphic 3x4: The reel holds sheet film in the Quarter Plate format (full camera list see compatibility).
  • Secure hold without overlapping: The barbed hook system prevents negatives from slipping or sticking together during tilt agitation.
  • Disassemblable for film removal: The reel can be taken apart counterclockwise into two pieces so you can remove the wet sheet films without damage.
  • Cost-effective development: Use your existing Paterson System 4 setup for the rare Quarter Plate format without having to invest in expensive special tanks.
