It's a Nikon product, but it is optional (not included with the scanner).

The glass 120 holder is obviously only compatible with the 8000ED, since
only that scanner handles 120-size film.  However, there is some sort of
optional glass holder for what looks like 35mm slides, too, but the brochure
isn't very clear on exactly what it is.  I don't know if a similar holder
exists for the 4000 (the 4000 and 8000 use two different and incompatible
holder designs).

If not, you could always try mounting slides under glass, although that's
awfully awkward.
