TAYLOR 2OZ CYANURIC ACID REAGENT
Product Overview
Delivering sharp, reproducible readings, this 2 oz bottle of Taylor R-0013 Cyanuric Acid Reagent keeps your pool stabilizer levels accurate.
Formulated specifically for standard turbidimetric CYA testing, the Taylor R-0013-C Cyanuric Acid Reagent comes in a 2 oz (60 mL) dropper bottle (cataloged as 2OZ). Designed as a direct refill for kits running R-0013, this melamine-based solution precipitates cyanuric acid reliably, avoiding the inconsistent readings typical of generic test strips.

Benefits & What Makes It Different
Precise Melamine Chemistry
Reacts cleanly with pool water stabilizer, creating an accurate suspension for standard disappearing-dot comparator tubes.
Direct Fit for Taylor Kits
Replaces depleted reagent in K-2006, K-2005, and standalone stabilizer testing assemblies using R-0013-C.
Controlled Dropper Tip
Dispenses uniform drops from the 60 mL bottle to prevent skewed mixing ratios during routine testing.
Product Details
Melamine buffer solution (< 1%)
Mix in a 1:1 ratio with pool water in the designated Taylor comparator tube (typically 7 mL or 15 mL sample).
Compatibility
- Taylor K-2005 and K-2006 complete test kits
- Taylor 9079 and similar visual turbidity comparator tubes
When To Use This
Pro Tip
In cooler water (below 70°F), allow the sample-reagent mixture to sit for a full two minutes and shake gently once more before reading; cold water slows the melamine-CYA reaction and can lead to artificially low readings.
Common Questions & Instructions
How many stabilizer tests can you perform with a 2 oz bottle of Taylor R-0013?
A standard Taylor cyanuric acid test uses 7 mL or 15 mL of reagent depending on the comparator tube, yielding approximately 4 to 8 tests from a 2 oz (60 mL) bottle.
What is the shelf life of Taylor R-0013-C cyanuric acid reagent?
Taylor recommends replacing R-0013 annually, as exposure to temperature swings and light can degrade the reagent and skew cloudiness readings.
Why does the water turn cloudy when adding Taylor R-0013?
The reagent contains a melamine solution that precipitates out upon contact with cyanuric acid, allowing visual measurement as the black dot disappears.
