.75 oz Silver Nitrate Reagent Dropper Bottle
Product Overview
Accurate salinity testing for salt chlorine generators starts with fresh titration reagents.
Taylor R-0718 Silver Nitrate Reagent comes in a 0.75 oz (.75 oz) dropper bottle calibrated specifically for drop-count salt titrations like the K-1766 test kit. Unlike test strips that drift with water temperature, silver nitrate drops provide an exact chloride reading to keep salt chlorinator cells operating within their target PPM range. As with standard Taylor reagents, replace this bottle every 12 months or at the beginning of each swim season to maintain testing precision.

Benefits & What Makes It Different
Precise Drop-Dispensing Tip
Each drop delivers a consistent volume calibrated for standard Taylor drop-count titration test kits.
Salt Cell Protection
Provides exact parts-per-million chloride measurements to prevent under-salting or over-salting your chlorinator cell.
0.75 oz Standard Size
The 0.75 oz bottle fits standard Taylor kit slots and provides enough reagent for roughly 20 to 30 salt titrations.
Product Details
Silver Nitrate (< 5%)
1 drop per 200 ppm salt (NaCl) in a 10 mL sample when using standard Taylor K-1766 testing protocol
Compatibility
- Taylor K-1766 Salt Test Kit
- Taylor R-0630 Chromate Indicator
- All residential and commercial saltwater swimming pools
When To Use This
Pro Tip
Always hold the R-0718 dropper completely vertical—not tilted—when adding drops to your sample tube. Tilting changes the surface tension and drop volume, which skews your salt reading by hundreds of parts per million.
Common Questions & Instructions
How often should I replace Taylor R-0718 Silver Nitrate Reagent?
Replace your 0.75 oz bottle of R-0718 at least once per year or at the start of every testing season. Silver nitrate degrades with prolonged exposure to heat, air, and sunlight, leading to inaccurate salt concentration readings.
Which test kit uses Taylor R-0718 Silver Nitrate?
Taylor R-0718 is the titrating reagent used primarily in the Taylor K-1766 saltwater test kit, paired with the R-0630 chromate indicator to test pool salinity in 200 ppm increments per drop.
How should Taylor R-0718 be stored to prevent degradation?
Store the dropper bottle tightly capped in a cool, dark location between 36°F and 85°F. Never leave the reagent in direct sunlight or inside a hot equipment shed, as silver nitrate is light-sensitive and breaks down quickly under UV light.
