	While film transfer flanges are suitable for feeding out cored film, the lack of a flange on the operator side presents problems when winding from a reel to a flange. Because reels are thicker than the flanges, the film path is slightly out of alignment and the film will tend to telescope out from the flange towards the operator instead of spooling flat. For this reason, a [[split reel]] should be used when rewinding onto cores. Most split reels cannot receive trailer cores, but 1” trailer cores are not suitable for long-term storage and should be replaced with larger cores instead of being reused. In a non-archival setting, film being returned to a trailer core can be guided by hand to make it spool flat.

	A '''trailer flange''' is used to ~~transfer~~ a ~~35mm~~ [[~~trailers\|~~trailer]] ~~from~~ a ~~non-standard~~ [[~~core~~]] to a ~~projection~~ reel. It is ~~functionally similar~~ to a [[split reel]], but ~~can only~~ be ~~used in conjunction~~ with a ~~1" [[~~trailer core]].		A '''trailer flange''' is used to adapt a [[trailer core]] to a [[rewind spindle]]. Once the core is seated on the flange, the film can be wound onto a reel.

			Trailer cores have the same internal diameter as standard cores but they are positive-keyed (the key extends from the core), so the hub of the trailer flange has a keyway to receive them. Some trailer flanges have a removable pin or a retractable key that allows them to receive negative-keyed cores as well. Flanges that can receive both styles of core are properly referred to as film transfer flanges rather than trailer flanges.

			While film transfer flanges are suitable for feeding out cored film, the lack of a flange on the operator side presents problems when winding from a reel to a flange. Because reels are thicker than the flanges, the film path is slightly out of alignment and the film will tend to telescope out from the flange towards the operator instead of spooling flat. For this reason, a [[split reel]] should be used when rewinding onto cores. Most split reels cannot receive trailer cores, but 1” trailer cores are not suitable for long-term storage and should be replaced with larger cores instead of being reused. In a non-archival setting, film being returned to a trailer core can be guided by hand to make it spool flat.

	Trailer cores cannot be placed directly on a standard [[Kelmar]] spindle for the purpose of film inspection. Trailer cores also do not fit on a standard split reel; they can only be used in conjunction with a trailer flange. Once the trailer core is seated on the trailer flange, the film can be wound onto a standard reel.
