The D1132-01TP is the bulk zirconium Triple-Pure bead variant at 0.1 mm size, 250 g pack, $512 ($2.05 per gram). NEW SUBFAMILY: D1132 Bulk Zirconium Triple-Pure beads for facility-loaded workflows requiring molecular biology grade (ultra-low contamination) zirconium beads. 60% per-gram premium over D1131 silica bulk ($1.28/g) — reflects zirconium higher density + Triple-Pure purity grade.

Bulk Bead Economics
For facility-loaded workflows at scale:
| Bead chemistry | Bulk per-gram cost | Equivalent prefilled-tube cost | Bulk break-even |
| Silica (D1131 family) | $1.28/g | $2.72/tube prefilled | ~6-7 packs |
| Zirconium Triple-Pure (D1132 family, this product) | $2.05/g | $3.79/tube prefilled | ~10-12 packs |
Pick the D1132-01TP when:
- Facility runs high-throughput BeadBug workflows at scale
- Triple-Pure Molecular Biology Grade required for sensitive downstream analysis
- Custom bead-mass loading — facility-specific protocols
- Method-development workflows at zirconium chemistry tier
