Type K Mini Plug Pair
Two yellow Type K thermocouple mini plugs are supplied in a single pack for temperature-sensing connections. The plastic housings carry nickel contacts and flat pins that match standard Type K sockets. Each plug is colour-coded yellow for quick identification in test and measurement setups. Builders assembling custom probe leads can terminate wires directly onto these connectors.
Plastic Housing With Nickel Contacts
The moulded plastic body insulates the connection while the nickel pins maintain the thermoelectric characteristics required by Type K sensors. Flat-pin geometry allows a secure fit in panel jacks or handheld meter inputs without soldering to a circuit board. The compact mini-plug format leaves space in crowded terminal strips or control cabinets. No additional hardware is included, so installers must provide their own wire and strain relief.
Sustained Signal Integrity
Nickel contacts resist oxidation during long-term exposure to the temperatures Type K sensors typically measure. The plastic sheath remains stable under continuous thermal cycling, preventing contact resistance drift that would corrupt readings. California Proposition 65 notices apply because the materials contain listed chemicals; handlers should follow standard safety practices. The pair supports duplicate or spare connections in permanent installations.

Questions about this item
What temperature limit does the plastic housing hit first under sustained use?
The plastic housing and sheath will soften well before the Type K thermocouple reaches its own range, so the connector becomes the practical ceiling.
Does the mini plug get hot or draw noticeable power during all-day logging?
The nickel contacts add only milliohms of resistance, so self-heating is negligible and no external power is needed.
What must the buyer already own for these yellow Type K mini plugs to work?
A Type K thermocouple probe with flat-pin leads and an instrument that accepts a miniature Type K jack.
