Stainless Steel K-Type Thermocouple Insertion Probe 6"
This is a great medium size insertion thermocouple with a K-Type sensor. The sensor is housed at the tip of a 6 inch long stainless steel probe, which comes with a 3 inch long handle. It has a miniature type connector that will work with digital K-type thermometers. I frequently have customers who buy this for measuring the temperature of molten lead in bullet casting, frequently with Lyman casting kits. The sensor is about 1/4 inch from the tip. The tip can be inserted about 1 inch into the molten lead to get you a good temperature reading. It is important to keep the handle and cable at room temperature.
