Applications
16mm film reels are used with 16mm projectors, film editing tables (flatbeds and upright editors), and archival film handling equipment. The 16mm format was widely adopted for educational, industrial, documentary, and broadcast use from the 1920s onward, and remains in active use today in film archives, cinematheques, schools, and among collectors and cinema enthusiasts. A 12.25-inch reel typically holds approximately 1,200 to 1,600 feet of 16mm film, enough for a standard feature-length program at sound speed. Metal reels like this one are preferred over plastic for archival and long-term storage because they are more dimensionally stable and less prone to warping. This reel is compatible with most standard 16mm projection and editing equipment that accepts open-reel 16mm film on a center spindle.
This MPE 10392 16mm Metal Film Reel (12.25" diameter) is in good used condition. The reel shows light surface wear and minor scuffing consistent with normal handling and storage, as visible in the photos. The metal spoke structure and center spindle aperture appear intact and undamaged. It was photographed on foam padding, suggesting it has been stored with care. No film is included — reel only.
