Film Reels
16MM Film Reels
Produced in a superior formulation of tough, lightweight polystyrene, Tuscan 16mm film reels are designed to withstand the wear and tear of continuous use, having a proven balance of rigidity and impact strength with these important features:
- Material specification and a reinforced spool design prevent rim buckling or damage from the impact of a fall.
- Due to a patented process of assembly, Tuscan reels will not warp or lose shape.
- All edges are smoothly rounded for film protection and ease of handling.
- The hardened metal drive insert will not wear.
- Easy-to-read accurately calibrated scale in meters and feet is provided on both sides of the reel.
Tuscan reels have consistently met the most exacting standards of film users world wide. We are the sole manufacturer and distributor of plastic film reels in Australia. We also manufacture and distribute in the United States and Canada as a supplier to the National Film Board of Canada.
Microfilm service bureaus have also discovered the benefits of our 2000-foot reel as a replacement for 15" metal spools used in the lab. Our 2000-foot reel is sturdier and much less expensive than a metal spool and is in stock for immediate shipping.

8mm Film Reel & Can Set
Impeccably styled with careful attention to detail, Tuscan Super-8 reels may
be fitted with an easily removable, self-locking plug for Standard 8 film use.
Plugs are ordered separately. Patents
protect Tuscan's exclusive three-way combination of manual and automatic loading
incorporated in the advanced, one-piece construction design. This revolutionary
development eliminates glued sections and provides an extremely rigid center,
ensuring a true running reel. And manual loading is simply achieved through
a wide entry slot tapering to a unique film-end grip.
Tuscan truly "sets the pace" with:
- Highest quality transparent smoke polystyrene construction -- attractive and durable.
- Protective, stackable cases shrink wrapped to prevent scratching.
- Smoothly rounded edges throughout to prevent film damage.
- Accurately graduated scale (meters and feet) displayed clearly on both sides of the reel.
