pH Test Paper - 80 Strips is a booklet of universal indicator strips used for quick visual pH checks across a wide range of liquids. Each strip changes colour within seconds and is matched against the included chart to estimate acidity or alkalinity. This is a simple colour-based testing tool, not a digital pH meter, so it is best suited to fast screening rather than precision instrument readings. Its compact booklet format makes it especially handy for bench work, classrooms, and everyday DIY testing.

♡ Why we love it: These strips are quick, practical, and easy to keep within reach when you need a fast pH check without setting up a meter. They are especially useful for routine screening and day-to-day formulation work where convenience matters.
