Exhaust Thermocouple | K-Type Probe with 1/8 NPT | Up to 1300°C

This K-type EGT sensor checks your motor's exhaust gas temperature. This is important for engine tuning and keeping the engine healthy. Its main job is to give data that helps stop damage from too much heat, especially in turbo engines. This thermocouple EGT sensor handles up to 1300°C. Features and Benefits - Exposed tip design - It reacts very quickly to changes in exhaust temperature. This is key for tuning and racing. - Stainless steel probe with 1/8" NPT thread - The material resists rust from exhaust gases. The standard thread makes it easy to install in most manifolds. - Steel braided cable - This protects the signal wire from heat and wear in the engine bay. A bad EGT sensor can make the engine run poorly, so a protected cable matters. - High temperature K-type thermocouple - This sensor type reads the extreme temperatures in performance engine exhaust accurately. Other sensor types cannot do this. Applications - Turbocharged Engines - Check exhaust temperatures to safely adjust boost levels and keep the turbo from getting too hot with this motor exhaust temperature probe. - Diesel Engines - Use this EGT sensor for a diesel engine to get the right fuel mix and stop piston damage when towing or under heavy load. - Racing and Performance Vehicles - Get the fast, accurate data you need for tuning at the track and safely pushing your engine to its limits. What It Is This is a K-Type Exhaust Thermocouple, designed for measuring high temperatures. It features a stainless steel probe and a 1/8'' NPT thread for secure installation. The thermocouple is capable of accurately reading temperatures from 0 to 1300°C. It connects via elbow male plugs, making it suitable for integration with compatible display gauges or temperature controllers. The robust construction ensures durability in demanding environments. This specific probe is engineered for reliable performance in exhaust gas temperature applications. Key Uses & Applications This K-Type thermocouple is primarily used for monitoring Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT). Its high temperature range of 0-1300°C makes it suitable for demanding automotive, industrial, and performance engine applications where precise exhaust temperature readings are critical. The 1/8'' NPT thread allows for easy installation into exhaust manifolds or pipes. It can be connected to appropriate display gauges or temperature controllers to provide real-time data for tuning, diagnostics, and performance monitoring. The stainless steel probe ensures resilience in hot and corrosive environments. How to Choose When selecting a thermocouple, consider the temperature range required; this model offers 0-1300°C. Ensure the thermocouple type, in this case K-Type, matches your existing display gauge or temperature controller. The probe material, stainless steel for this product, should be appropriate for the application environment, especially for EGT. Check the thread type and size – this probe uses a 1/8'' NPT thread. Finally, verify the connector type, which here is elbow male plugs, is compatible with your system's wiring. Grit / Spec Guide This K-Type thermocouple has a temperature range of 0-1300°C. The probe is constructed from stainless steel, ensuring durability in high-temperature exhaust environments. It features a 1/8'' NPT thread for secure and standard installation. The connection is made via elbow male plugs, suitable for integration with compatible display gauges and temperature controllers. This specific probe is designed for EGT applications, offering a reliable solution for monitoring exhaust gas temperatures. No grit numbers apply to this product. Care & Safety Always ensure the thermocouple is correctly installed with the 1/8'' NPT thread securely tightened to prevent leaks or inaccurate readings. Do not exceed the specified temperature range of 0-1300°C. When handling the probe, allow it to cool down if it has been in use. For cleaning, wipe the stainless steel probe with a dry, clean cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. This thermocouple is not designed for water heater applications; cleaning a water heater thermocouple or replacing a thermocouple on a gas fireplace requires different tools and procedures. Always disconnect power before working on any electrical or gas appliance.
