Melt Bolt Thermocouples

Are immersed directly into the melt for a more accurate reading. They mount in the extruder barrel near the head. The closed end sensitive portion of the tip is immersed directly into the plastic. There are two styles available. The Fiberglass type has a fiberglass insulated thermocouple element in a stainless steel probe. The MgO type obtains its insulation from magnesium oxide which is tightly compressed between the thermocouple wires and the stainless steel sheath.
