| Thermocouples are non-returnable.
Please make sure you are buying the right one. While Type-K
thermocouples are all the same electrically, the kiln manufacturers use
different styles, lengths, diameters, and also add mounting hardware for particular
applications. Therefore,
thermocouples are not plug-in compatible / interchangeable with
one-another. It's important you purchase the correct one for your
brand/model of kiln. |

* Newer kilns use 8 gauge thermocouples. Older ones used 14
gauge. It is recommended that you drill out the brick in older kilns to accept the
larger diameter 8 gauge thermocouples. If you prefer not to do that,
purchase the 14 gauge.

Skutt
|
| Thermocouple, Type-K, 6 in, 8 ga, open element (Skutt PN 1515).
For use in kiln mounted, KilnMaster controllers. (Best
replacement for all Skutt kiln-mounted controllers. If you
currently have a sheathed thermocouple, this is your most
reliable replacement. However, it may require slight kiln
modification, drilling of skin and kiln brick, to install.) |
$16 |
|
| Thermocouple, Type-K, 6 in, sheathed (Skutt PN
1594).
For use in kiln mounted, KilnMaster/ GlassMaster controllers. (Same-part
replacement for Skutt kiln-mounted controllers with sheathed
thermocouples purchased prior to Feb 2004 . If you
currently have a sheathed thermocouple, this is the most
direct replacement. No kiln modification required.
However, these thermocouples are considered unreliable
when fired above 1800F. Purchase for use low-fire
use only. |
