Overview
Empty Metal Film Cassette 135 35 mm Refillable Stainless Steel Body and Removable Caps Silver For Winding Film from Bulk

The empty film cassette is a practical assistant for anyone shooting with an analogue camera who wants to wind their own film. The cartridge is designed for film format 135 (35 mm), which is the most common type of film used by most 35 mm film cameras. The body of the cassette is made of stainless steel with two metal caps, and inside is a spool onto which the film is wound. The cassette can be disassembled, filled, and reused after shooting and developing the film. It is ideal for photographers who buy film in bulk and fill individual cassettes as needed.

At the edge of the slot through which the film exits, there is a dark strip of felt. This seals around the film and prevents light from entering the cassette, ensuring that the film remains protected during storage, transport, and insertion into the camera. A transparent leader tape is attached to the spool, to which the start of the film is connected. The removable caps hold the body together and, when removed, provide access to the spool, making film changing a matter of moments.

  • Type – empty refillable film cassette (cartridge) for film
  • Film format – 135 (35 mm)
  • Body material – stainless steel
  • Colour – silver
  • Construction – body with light-tight felt in the slot, two removable metal caps, and spool
  • Spool – with transparent leader tape for connecting the film
  • Usage – winding film from bulk, repeated filling, and storing film
  • Package contents – 1 empty film cassette 135 consisting of body, two caps, and spool with leader tape

Fill the cassette in the dark, in a photographic bag or film winder, to prevent the film from being exposed before closing the cassette. Attach the end of the film to the leader tape on the spool, wind the film, insert the spool into the body, and place both caps on. Before the next filling, it is advisable to check the felt in the slot and remove any dust or small debris that could scratch the film. Store the empty cassette in a dry place to keep the body and caps clean and secure. You can use one cassette repeatedly, filling it with whichever film you want to shoot with, whether it be black and white or colour material.

The metal film cassette is a simple and reusable accessory for analogue photography. Thanks to the 135 (35 mm) format, it is suitable for standard 35 mm film cameras and allows for filling film from bulk according to personal needs. The disassemblable construction with removable metal caps facilitates handling and changing the film. The light-tight felt in the slot protects the film during insertion into the camera and during storage. Photographers who fill and develop their own film will appreciate the reliable empty cartridge at hand.
