Dayton 36GK88 Type J Thermocouple Jack
This Dayton 36GK88 jack accepts Type J thermocouple circuits with a two-pin miniature connector. The glass-filled nylon body provides electrical insulation and heat resistance for industrial temperature sensing. Its black colour helps identify the Type J calibration in multi-sensor installations. The flat-pin design ensures a secure connection in vibration-prone environments.
Suits Type J sensor wiring only
Technicians wiring Type J thermocouples to instruments or extension cables will find this connector matches the required calibration. Installers needing Type K, Type T or other thermocouple types cannot use this jack because the pin polarity and metallurgy are fixed for Type J. Users requiring panel-mount hardware or a locking mechanism should look at alternative connector styles.
Type J calibration is the deciding factor
The connector is manufactured exclusively for Type J thermocouple alloys and will not maintain accuracy with other calibration types. Glass-filled nylon construction supports the operating temperatures typical of Type J applications. Verify that the sensor and instrumentation both specify Type J before fitting this jack.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the Type J black jack or another colour for my thermocouple circuit?
The black colour identifies a Type J thermocouple circuit; select this jack only when your sensor and wiring are also Type J.
What does the Type J designation mean when the jack is installed in a panel?
Type J means the jack uses iron and constantan contacts matched to Type J thermocouples, so the signal stays accurate at the connection point.
How do the flat pins and glass-filled nylon body affect the connection?
Flat pins give a secure miniature plug fit, while the glass-filled nylon body resists heat and maintains insulation in HVAC environments.
