Swim Check Fix® Borate Buffer – 60 Tablet Bucket

Swim Check Fix^® Borate Buffer Tablets provide a convenient, no-mess way to establish and maintain borate levels in swimming pools. Formulated with 97% boric acid and 3% borax, these easy-to-use tablets help stabilize pH and support balanced water chemistry without measuring powders or handling liquids.

Each 3-inch, 7 oz (200 g / 0.44 lb) tablet raises borates by approximately 1 ppm (as boron) in 10,000 gallons of pool water. Engineered to dissolve gradually over several hours, the tablets have a near-neutral pH of approximately 7.4 and are designed for use in standard skimmer baskets or SkimBuddy® systems for clean, controlled application.

The economical 60-tablet bucket is ideal for pool service professionals, commercial facilities, and homeowners maintaining multiple pools or building and maintaining the recommended borate level of 30 to 50 ppm throughout the swimming season.
