Type K thermocouple probes¹ have standard two-blade connector. Separate connectors and bulk rolls of Type K thermocouple wires allow you to make probes as needed. Just install a connector and solder or crimp the ends of the two wires together and you have an inexpensive, disposable probe. Temperature is measured at the electrical junction only.
Type K and Type T thermocouple probes and extensions can be made by stripping thermocouple grade wire end to crimp or solder together for probes or attaching Type K or Type T male or female connectors.

Thermocouple Wire Description
Thermocouple wire is a special and most common type of electrical wire used for high temperature measurement. It is two dissimilar metals joined together at one end to form a junction that generates a small voltage proportional to the high temperature difference between the two metals. This voltage can be measured and interpreted to get the temperature. Thermocouple wire comes in different types, K-Type, J-Type, T-Type and E-Type each with its own characteristics and application. K-Type thermocouple wire is known for its wide temperature range and durability, it is widely used in many industries.
