Photographic Processing Tank

Photographic processing tanks are essential equipment used in the development and finishing of photographic films. They are part of the supply class of Photographic Developing and Finishing Equipment, which falls under the supply group of Photographic Equipment.

Photographic processing tanks are designed to hold and process photographic films during the development and fixing stages. They are typically made of light-tight materials such as plastic or stainless steel to prevent any unwanted light from affecting the film.

These tanks come in various sizes to accommodate different film formats, ranging from 35mm to large format films. They usually have adjustable reels or spirals inside to securely hold the film and ensure even chemical distribution during processing.

The tanks have light-tight lids or caps to seal the tank and prevent light leaks. This is crucial to maintain the integrity of the film and prevent any unwanted exposure.

Photographic processing tanks are used in conjunction with other equipment and chemicals, such as developing solutions, stop baths, and fixers, to develop and finish photographic films. They play a vital role in the darkroom workflow, allowing photographers to process their films efficiently and achieve desired results.

Overall, photographic processing tanks are essential tools for photographers and darkroom enthusiasts, enabling them to develop and finish their films with precision and control.
