Lab Armor Beads

Update Your Water Baths and Ice Buckets  – with Beads Lab Armor® Beads are small, dry, metallic thermal beads designed to replace water in laboratory water baths and ice in ice buckets. There are several major advantages to using Lab Armor beads over water in you bath. These include:
