Taylor 5976-35 Bimetal Thermometer
The Taylor 5976-35 is a bimetal thermometer with a two-inch dial designed for environmental and mechanical temperature measurement. It serves technicians, facility managers and home users who need a direct-reading instrument without batteries or electronic components. The stainless steel housing and polycarbonate lens suit general-purpose monitoring in soil, HVAC or process applications. Buyers requiring data logging, remote readout or alarm outputs should select a digital alternative.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
As a purely mechanical bimetal device the thermometer generates no heat, emits no noise and draws zero power during operation. The stainless steel stem conducts temperature to the coiled element which moves the pointer across the 20 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit and 0 to 80 degrees Celsius scale. Response time depends on the medium and immersion depth rather than an internal power source. No calibration drift from battery depletion or electronic ageing occurs.
Bundled Accessories and Software
The product ships without a NIST-traceable calibration certificate so users must arrange independent verification if traceable documentation is required. No mounting hardware, protective sheath or carrying case is included in the package. The polycarbonate lens and stainless steel stem are the only fitted components. No software, mobile application or digital interface is supplied or supported by this analogue instrument.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 4 in stem into soil and what step do people skip?
Push the 4 in stainless steel stem into the soil until the 2 in dial sits level; the step often skipped is waiting for the bimetal coil to stabilise before reading.
What maintenance or replacement will the thermometer need over time?
The polycarbonate lens can scratch or fog; if the dial drifts beyond the 20 to 180 F range the unit cannot be recalibrated and must be replaced.
What limit appears first during sustained outdoor use?
The 180 F upper limit of the bimetal coil is reached before the stainless housing or polycarbonate lens degrade.
