T-PRO K-Type Thermocouple Wire for Very High Temperature(0-1000℃) Fiberglass (1M Wire)

I use this in my smoker, bbq, oven and forge. works like a champ in all of them. its a game changer when you actually know the temp. or at least within 20 degrees of it.

I needed to calibrate the porcelain furnaces at the dental lab I work at...the thermocouple that came with the digital thermometer was only good up to 1200 degrees and I needed to have the ability to get to 1750 and the 2200 limit on this thermocouple was more than adequate...the fiberglass insulator barely changed color's in the heat looks like I'll be able to use it for a long time... that's good because we have 6 furnaces to keep accurate....10 degrees off makes a big difference in the look of the porcelain teeth...

Bought 2 of these for my home designed/built coffee roaster. The probes/cable worked fine as far as finding a great spot for both and the temps readings respond very quickly and stabilize faster than other/thicker probes I've used. Problem is the insulating fiber just didn't hold up well at all. Granted I did have one of the probes in coffee being agitated so there was some friction and I did have a concern over this possibly being an issue, but didn't want to overthink it. Sure enough early on the fibers started to break down quite easily and then just fell apart. I can't really complain that much as maybe they're not intended for my use, but do feel that for the price point the build quality should be more robust. Now I'm out $60 and went back to using stainless wrapped probes that have never let me down.

I got tired of dealing with flaky cheap thermocouples and decided to spend a little more on this model. I'm glad I did as it solved some of my intermittent reading issues. The wires are are much thicker gauge than the cheap stuff and the weld at the end looks nice and solid. Both the hot end and the connector end are nicely finished and the plug has solid pins. The only caution I would give is that the cable is relatively stiff due to the wire gauge and in certain applications that could be an issue.

Great product. Durable and accurate and fast response time. Within 1 degree of my Fluke remote probe. I prefer this to the Fluke and will be buying again... I'd still recommend checking for accuracy because maybe I got a good one. Best construction and materials out of every temp probe I've owned.

For precision high temperature monitoring and control this thermocouple is a necessity. Now I am very accurately able to control the high temperature processes where precise control is a necessity to assure the very best reproducibility and consistency in heat treated products.

It comes with a "large" plug, but that can be removed to expose the leads and you can screw those into your amp plug. It is very robust with no plastic to melt, except on the plug itself. I'm using it to measure temps in a kiln, average of 1000 degrees F. I think it is a little inaccurate because it doesn't agree with my kiln, but I'm not sure that one is perfect either. Hard to say which one is off

Great quality thermocouple. But I've experienced some strangeness, both my Keithley DMM6500 and two Flir handhelds agree in temp with this thermocouple, but my Siglent SDM3055 reads 10 degrees low. However if I use the cheap yellow thermo that came with my handhelds all of them including the Siglent read bang on the same temp. I don't get it, even at room temp the Siglent will read 10 low with this product for some reason.
