Type K bead probe for -40 to 500 °F

This Type K thermocouple probe uses a bead-style sensor on a 3 ft 3 3/8 in lead that terminates in a banana plug. It is intended for technicians who need quick air or surface temperature readings with a compatible digital multimeter.

Practical limits of the Type K interface

The probe is rated from -40 °F to 500 °F, which is -40 °C to 260 °C. Accuracy and response time depend on the meter you connect it to, so the effective range may be narrower if your instrument specifies tighter limits for Type K inputs.

Check your multimeter before ordering

Verify that your meter accepts a Type K thermocouple with a banana-plug connection and covers the required temperature span. The product carries a Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm, and it includes a one-year manufacturer warranty.

Questions about this item

What temperature range does the Type K bead probe cover?

The probe measures from minus 40 up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, which is minus 40 to 260 degrees Celsius.

What does the 500 °F headline figure mean when the probe is in use?

It marks the highest temperature the Type K bead can reliably read in air or on a surface before the measurement exceeds its calibrated range.

How does the banana plug connection limit the instruments I can use?

The 3 ft 3 3/8 in lead terminates in a standard banana plug, so it fits any digital multimeter or logger that accepts 4 mm banana jacks.
