Tip-sensitive, spring-loaded thermocouple temperature assemblies provide fast and accurate readings of bearings, blocks, frames and other surfaces. Minco’s spring loaded holder ensures solid contact in drilled holes and has a built-in oil seal. The sensing probe features a copper alloy tip for quick response to temperature changes. These assemblies are also the industry choice for insertion into pre-installed thermowells in process applications.
