X-Ray Film Holders

Description

X-Ray Film Holders

An X-ray film holder grips dental radiograph films by the edge, so staff can handle, hang and process them without touching the image area. Practices and labs that still work with film use these holders in the darkroom and for drying. Our supplier lists them among its miscellaneous products, in four sizes.

Single Clip or a Multi-Clip Set

The Single Clip holds one film. It suits occasional single exposures, or a practice that wants spare clips. The three sets carry several clips on one holder: Set of 6 Clips, Set of 10 Clips and Set of 14 Clips. As a result, a full series of films can travel through processing together, and each film keeps its place in the sequence.

Matching Clip Count to Your Film Series

Choose by the number of films you usually process at once. For example, a small bitewing series fits comfortably on the 6-clip holder. Meanwhile, larger series call for the 10-clip or 14-clip set. If you process a mix, keeping one of each size means the right holder is always free. In addition, a few Single Clips cover retakes.

Keeping Films in Order

Mixing up films is an easy mistake in a busy darkroom. A multi-clip holder helps, because the films stay in a fixed row from loading to drying. Many teams label each holder with the operatory or patient tray, so films never end up on the wrong mount. That simple routine saves time when you mount and file the images.

Holder Inspection and Warranty

Every clip holder, from the Single Clip to the Set of 14, is checked by eye and by hand in the United States prior to leaving us. Film holders arrive unsterilized, therefore clean them according to your darkroom and infection control routine before use. Each film holder size also carries three years against manufacturing defects, clips included.

Our stainless steel hand instruments follow ASTM F899, published on the FDA standards record. Explore Diagnostic, Periodontal and Restorative Instruments for other exam tools, add a Mouth Mirror #5 with Handle for the clinical exam itself, and read the FAQs before ordering.

Film holders are sold to trained dental and radiography staff. See care and sterilization for cleaning guidance, plus shipping and delivery for clip set dispatch.
