Magnesium Test Strips, 0-1000 ppm [Vial of 25 Strips]

Description

Testing magnesium in your groundwater & drinking water has never been easier! Our standalone test strips give you an accurate reading in under one minute in terms of Mg and CaCO3 . Easy to read color blocks at 0, 125, 250, 500 & 1000 ppm Mg2+ and 0, 500, 1000, 2000, & 4,000 ppm CaCO3.

As rainwater passes through soil and rocks it absorbs some of the hard metals it passes through (mostly calcium and magnesium). While total hardness can be easily measured by test strips there are many situations where determining the specific mineral contributing to the hardness is useful.  Learn more about total hardness testing and the impact of calcium and magnesium on water hardness. 

• Quick and Accurate: Provides results in under one minute, giving accurate readings for magnesium (Mg) and calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) levels.
• Easy to Interpret: Features color blocks for straightforward reading at specific ppm levels (0-1000 ppm for Mg, 0-4000 ppm for CaCO₃).
• Standalone Test: No additional equipment needed; convenient for testing groundwater and drinking water on the go.
• Essential for Hard Water Analysis: Useful for identifying specific minerals (like magnesium) contributing to water hardness.

How to test Magnesium: 

1. Dip strip into sample
2. Shake off excess liquid
3. Wait one minute then compare to color chart
