The best way to use the double sided stuff, in my experience, is in a vertical tank to avoid scratches. I built one out of acrylic for 11x14.

I agree with Jim
2X X-Ray works fine, it does scratch if not loaded carefully. I learned how to NOT scratch even with my clumsy fingers
I recommended the above 2x, buy the cheaper Green as it's way cheaper. Always buy the cheaper, blue of green means almost nothing for our uses.
I also recommend the same thing in 14X17" as it does fit 14X17" plastic Medical DDS https://www.zzmedical.com/analog-x-r...-ray-film.html
Which is almost exactly the same price per sq inch
I have cut 2X down to fit Hasselblad sheet film holders, and was amazed how sharp the tiny images were.

Someone was looking for some Ektascan B/RA to finish a project. I have a little (under 20 sheets) if that's helpful let me know, it is 8x10 and several years at room temp, it worked fine the last I used it but darkroom work is on back burner right now. I'd like to recover cost and shipping.
I've also cut it down for 5x7 and that leaves you with a 1" piece that makes super sharp images in 35mm cameras loaded in the red lighted dim/darkroom.
the link above is to 14x17 at 86 cents a sheet. Wow. Might have to build a 14x17 so I can afford to shoot film...hahaha...not funny. seriously tempting. I think I will stick to 8x10 for now, and learn to do good work on 2 sided in film hangers in skinny tanks first.

Look for Agfa Mamoray HDR-C Plus...its single sided. Looks like it comes in 24x30 cm.
