The probe features a grounded junction and a 316 stainless steel sheath measuring 4 inches in length with a 0.134-inch diameter, making it suitable for puncturing food products, soft compounds, and similar media. The straight PVC-coated cable terminates in a Type K mini connector for direct connection to compatible meters and data loggers. Response time is 3 seconds, and the operating range spans -320 degrees F to 1,500 degrees F (-196 degrees C to 816 degrees C). Licensed HVAC technicians, refrigeration techs, and food-service equipment professionals are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis probe is well suited for residential and light commercial service work where surface or immersion probes are not appropriate. Common applications include checking temperature in viscous fluids, gel-based materials, soft food products, and semi-hard compounds. The piercing tip allows the probe to penetrate the material surface without requiring a pre-drilled access point. The 316 stainless steel sheath provides corrosion resistance and is considered food-safe, making it appropriate for use in food-service and refrigeration applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType K thermocouple with grounded junction for fast thermal response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel sheath — corrosion resistant and food-safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-inch sheath length with 0.134-inch diameter piercing tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature range: -320 degrees F to 1,500 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-second response time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight PVC-coated cable with Type K mini connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-year manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with instruments that accept a Type K mini thermocouple connector.

Before connecting or disconnecting the probe from an active meter circuit, verify the instrument is set to the correct thermocouple type to avoid measurement errors. Insert the piercing tip directly into the material being measured and allow at least one full response cycle before recording temperature. Do not exceed the rated temperature range of the probe or the connected instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProbe Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProbe Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Piercing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJunction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grounded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -320 degrees F to 1,500 degrees F (-196 degrees C to 816 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResponse Time\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheath Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheath Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.134 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheath Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight PVC-Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type K Mini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: One Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FLUKE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80PK-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FLUKE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544171315506,"sku":"80PK-25","price":240.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/fluke-80pk-25-type-k-piercing-thermocouple-probe","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
