Product details
Taylor R-0870-J is DPD powder reagent in the 113 gram quarter pound container. It is the bulk form of the powder rather than a small bottle.
Why the bulk size
DPD is the reagent chemistry behind chlorine and bromine testing, and anyone running a service route or a commercial pool goes through it steadily. The quarter pound container costs less per test than repeatedly buying the small size and means fewer reorders.
Ordering
Taylor codes the container size into the part number, so R-0870-J is specifically the 113 gram version. Match the full part number when you reorder rather than searching on the reagent name alone.
