How is this film downrated? I plan to use this in

How is this film downrated? I plan to use this in a turn of the 20th century camera with a triple convertible and a shutter that tops out at 1/100 sec. Also will be using old (1915) film to plate adapters and I suspect films of that era were a little thicker.

CatLABS X Film 80 II Black and White Negative Film (4 x 5", 25 Sheets) is made to be used in film holders like CatLABS 4x5" Film Holder Pair (Refurbished), BH #CA4X5FH2 (https://bhpho.to/42uASas). If the camera does not work with film holders like that, it could be an issue. The film is pretty good for pulling. But I would not pull more than one stop (50 ISO).
