Type K thermocouple bead probe
The Fluke 80PK-1 is a Type K bead wire temperature probe designed for technicians who need fast air or surface readings. Its mini plug connects directly to compatible Fluke digital multimeters or thermometers. The sensor covers -40 °F to 500 °F (-40 °C to 260 °C) for general-purpose environmental and mechanical checks.
Mini plug and 3 ft 4 in cable
A standard mini plug ensures a secure meter connection without adapters. The three-foot-four-inch cable keeps the handheld instrument clear of hot surfaces while the 5/32 inch bead tip reaches into ducts, vents or tight machinery gaps. The exposed junction responds quickly to temperature changes in moving air or on metal surfaces.
Verify meter accepts Type K mini plug
Confirm your meter or logger has a Type K mini-plug input before ordering. The probe is not suited for immersion in liquids or continuous exposure above 500 °F. Users needing a heavier sheath, longer reach or a different connector style should select an alternative probe model.
