9x12 cm CASSETTES

We brought 9x12 cassettes back by combining old and new production techniques, making us the only company producing them after almost a century!

Where to buy?

You can purchase Katrašnik cassettes directly with us via contact page or e-mail. Or you can simply order it from Zebra dry plates in combination with some 9x12 dry plates:

They are lighter than ever!

Our cassettes are made from high-quality anodized aluminum instead of traditional steel, significantly reducing the weight from 104g* to just 45g while maintaining structural strength and usability.

Compatible by following strict standards!

Our cassettes are compatible with over 80% of 9x12cm cameras and nearly 100% of cameras made after 1928, as we adhere to strict DIN standards. If you want to ensure your camera meets the standard, you can check our measurement guide on our blog.

Making sure that your plates will fit

By slightly increasing the thickness of our cassettes, we ensured that even 2 mm glass fits perfectly, just like a glove. Back in the day, thinner 1–1.5 mm glass was commonly used, making some older cassettes incompatible with the 2 mm glass that is standard today. And because we still use back springs like the originals, you can also shoot with thinner glass or even tin plates.
