Ilford Multigrade FB Classic 8x10 25 Sheets

This variable-contrast black-and-white photographic paper is coated onto a 255g/m2 fibre base for the creative printer seeking neutral image colour and strong tonal rendition. It replaces the previous Multigrade IV FB Fiber line and is offered in a matte surface pack of 25 sheets.

Variable contrast fibre-based paper

The single specification that decides suitability is the variable-contrast fibre base, which allows grade control during enlargement without swapping paper stocks. A fixed-grade or resin-coated alternative would not provide the same tonal flexibility or the rich blacks this base delivers.

Darkroom printers who tone prints

Suited to analogue darkroom users who want a fast-exposure paper with short induction time, uniform grade separation and reduced wash duration, especially when toning on glossy surfaces. Buyers who need a colour emulsion, an inkjet media or a roll format larger than the supplied sheets should look elsewhere.

  • Fibre-based 255g/m² base gives rich blacks and depth

Questions about this item

What does the 255 g/m² fibre base mean for a finished 8x10 print?

The 255 g/m² fibre base gives each 8x10 sheet a substantial, rigid feel that resists curling and handles repeated wet processing without tearing.

How does the variable-contrast emulsion work with standard multigrade filters?

The emulsion responds to standard multigrade filters from grade 00 to 5, delivering uniform grade separation and a short 20-second induction time in the developer.

Will these 8x10 sheets fit a standard 8x10 easel and drying rack?

Yes, the sheets are cut to 8x10 inches, matching standard easel blades and drying screens for that format.
