Taylor Precision Products 5983N Candy Deep Fry Thermometer

Product Description

The TAYLOR PRECISION PRODUCTS 5983N is a 12-inch stainless steel confectionery and deep fry thermometer designed for professional food service and kitchen applications. It covers a temperature range of -100 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 to 200 degrees Celsius) and features a zoned scale for quick reading at critical candy and frying stages. The cool grip black plastic handle allows safe handling during high-heat operations. A pan clip is included for hands-free positioning on pots and fryers. This thermometer is suited for pastry chefs, line cooks, and food service technicians working with sugar work, deep frying, and confectionery production.

This thermometer is used in commercial and residential kitchen environments wherever precise temperature monitoring of hot liquids, oils, or sugar syrups is required. The zoned scale makes it especially practical for candy making, where reaching specific temperature stages such as soft ball, hard ball, or hard crack is critical to the finished product. It is also well suited for deep frying applications where oil temperature directly affects food safety and quality.

Installation Notes

Use the included pan clip to secure the thermometer to the rim of the pot or fryer before heating. Position the probe so the sensing tip is fully submerged in the liquid without touching the bottom of the vessel, which can cause inaccurate readings. Do not exceed the rated maximum temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Clean and dry the probe thoroughly after each use to maintain accuracy and prevent corrosion.
