COMPRESSION FITTING 1/4 TUBE X 1/8 NPT

One sensor in widespread use for different applications is the K-type thermocouple. With a heat range of –200 to 1260 °C, these sensors are suitable for the hottest applications such as brake rotor and exhaust temperatures. K-type thermocouples come in either an exposed tip or an enclosed tip. Exposed tip is faster in measuring change in temperature but is more susceptible to breakage from vibration or shock waves. Enclosed tip thermocouples are more reliable but deliver a slower update rate of between three to eight times per second.
