For Paterson Super System 4 Tanks, this Centre Column and Agitator Kit is a dedicated replacement for the Universal 35mm/120 tank, which holds just two reels. The centre column holds the reel in place during film processing and prevents light from entering the tank during development. The agitator is used for non-inversion style agitation during processing.

Penelope ★★★★★

My old column cracked after years of use, and this replacement slots right into the Universal tank with zero wobble when I invert it for agitation. The two-reel capacity is exactly what I need for a quick 35mm session, and the plastic feels just as sturdy as the original.

Henry ★★★★★

The fit is perfect for my tank, and the center column keeps the reel locked in place even during vigorous agitation. Saves me from the frustration of reels popping up mid-process.

Joseph ★★★★★

This replacement column locks the reel in place exactly as it should, so no more film shifting mid-development. Fits my two-reel 35mm tank perfectly and makes agitation feel much more controlled than the old worn piece did.
