Sold in 10-yard rolls, it delivers standard thermocouple accuracy (±2.2°C or ±0.75%) and enhanced flexibility for easy installation in temperature sensing and extension applications. ## Description This is a k-type thermocouple wire with yellow PVC vinyl insulation, which is good up to about 105 C or 221 F. This k-type thermocouple wire can be used to make your own thermocouples for a wide range of applications, or to make your own extension wire. The chromel alumel wire is made to standard thermocouple specifications. This is a stranded wire with 7 filaments, it is more flexible than a solid wire and therefore especially useful for k-type extension wires. It is sold in 10 yd roll, so if you order 2 units of this, you will receive 2 rolls each 10 yard long wire. This thermocouple wire is now available in longer spools of 50 yd, 110 yard and 220 yard. This K-type thermocouple wire can be used to make extension or hook up wire for the full K-type temperature range. It can transmit the thermocouple signal from -320 to +2500 degree Fahrenheit or -210 to +1370 degree Celsius. The limiting factor is the PVC insulation, which starts to soften and melt at about 220 °F or 105 °C. A typical use for this K-type thermocouple wire is in very hot ovens or kilns. You would install a high temperature K-type thermocouple with a fiberglass or ceramic insulation or a stainless steel K-type sensor inside the oven and run the high temperature insulated probe wire to a colder spot at the outside of the oven. There you use a miniature K-type thermocouple connector to connect it to this PVC insulated wire and run this extension wire to the K-type thermometer unit or PID temperature controller. This is a stranded K-type thermocouple wire. Each of the two sensor conductors is made from 7 individual metal wires. Each individual wire is 0.2 mm (8 mil) and the total diameter if the conductor is 0.5 mm (20 mil). Stranded thermocouple wires are more flexible and resistant to bending or breaking. They are also ideal if you pull a longer run of k-type thermocouple wire through a conduit. ## Features - K-type Thermocouple wire for making thermocouple or extension wire - Chromel / Alumel type K thermocouple wire with Standard Accuracy (whichever is greater): +/- 2.2C or +/- .75% - Stranded thermocouple wire, AWG 24 (0.51 mm), 7 strands x 0.2 mm - ANSI color coded PVC vinyl insulation, red = -, yellow = + - Sold in 10 yd rolls, 1 unit = 10 yard or 30 ft, order 2 units and you receive 2 x 10 yd wire ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B074DL428K | | Best Sellers Rank | #147,913 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #1,725 in Electrical Wire #14,627 in Lab & Scientific Products | | Brand Name | HXMLS | | Colour | Yellow,Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (60) | | Item Weight | 5 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Mi | | Material Type | Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Insulation | | Model Number | K-AWG-24-Stranded-PVC-10yd | | Number Of Wires | 7 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | K-AWG-24-Stranded-PVC-10yd | | Strands | 7 | | UPC | 096802971655 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Wire Diameter | 0.5 Millimetres | ## Product Details - **Brand:** HXMLS - **Colour:** Yellow,Red - **Material:** Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Insulation - **No. of wires:** 7 - **Number of Cable Strands:** 7 ## Images ![K-Type Thermocouple Wire AWG 24 Stranded Wire w.

Two things to keep in mind: At the low temperatures all insulation becomes brittle, so do not bend it when cold. Second, the electronic meter needs to be able to read low temperature, many thermometers only read to -50 degree F. A suitable meter that can read low temperatures is the Nicety DT1311 or DT1312. **Q: Can I solder the wires together on one end to make K Type thermocouples or is this just to make extension wires?** A: I purchased the TC wire to be used as an extension wire. If you solder the wires together you would change the bi-metal composition and thus it would not be just a chromel-alumel junction. The resistance across the junction would change with the addition of solder. I do not believe it would work very well. You might try twisting the ends together. It's not the ideal and probably fail with time (oxidation). Higher temps would increase the rate of oxidation. The best way would be used a fabricated TC. **Q: Can I mix solid and stranded? For example, I am using this as an extension wire for a water temp (K type) gauge and it used solid wire.** A: Off course. No problem. That is actually the most common way to hook up TC’s. Solid wire for the hot junction to a connector followed by stranded extension wire to the cold junction.
