Kindermann Style Stainless Steel Film Developing Tank

This Kindermann-style stainless steel film developing tank is a reliable, classic tool for developing up to two rolls of 35mm film at a time. Stainless steel tanks are beloved by darkroom pros and home lab enthusiasts for their durability, fast chemical temperature transfer, and ease of cleaning. Unlike plastic tanks, these don’t warp over time, and they’ll last pretty much forever with proper care.

Included with this setup are two stainless steel 35mm reels, ready to load and go. Whether you're souping your own Tri-X or experimenting with home C-41, this tank is a rock-solid part of any film processing workflow.

Condition: Good

This tank is in good working condition with visible signs of use. The stainless steel body has minor scuffs and signs of handling, but no dents or corrosion. The lid seals securely and the light trap is intact. Both 35mm reels are fully functional with smooth loading spirals and no kinks or bends. This is a solid working tank—not a shelf queen—but built to keep turning out rolls for years to come.

Great for anyone building out a home darkroom setup or looking for a backup tank that won’t quit.
