Our new Mini Handheld Thermocouple (MTC) is sure to be a favorite in the kitchen, at the backyard grill, or out in the factory.  It’s water-resistant, lightweight, and includes a type K thermocouple socket for use with virtually any type K probe.  This is a true thermocouple meter for about 1⁄2 the price of any we’ve seen.

The MTC has a splash rating of IP65 so kitchen or factory use is no problem.  With a large digit display you’ll be able to read temperatures anywhere in the kitchen.  A magnetic back panel attaches to any metal surface for easy mounting.

The ordering table below includes a list of some of our most popular probes.  Select from our favorites below, from our other standard K type thermocouples, or from the probes that you are currently using that include a mini connector.

Suggested Type K Probes:



Plug-Mounted Fast Response Penetration Probe
This plug mounted fast response probe is designed for measuring temperature very quickly. This is the same probe as we use on the Super-Fast Thermapen and Fast Response Penetration Probe. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
113-159 Plug-Mounted Fast Response Penetration Probe



Fast Response Meat Probe
Originally designed for measuring burgers, steaks and thin meat portions, this probe is often chosen for other purposes because it’s diameter is smaller than our handheld needle probe and it’s a bit quicker while leaving an even smaller hole. The 3.35" length allows you to reach the center of even a large burger when entering from the side, or it will reach the center of roasts for an extremely fast measurement. An optional detachable coiled or straight extension lead is also available. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
113-151 Fast Response Meat Needle Probe


Miniature Needle Probe
Use this probe for very small samples or just speedy response times. The PTFE cable and sealed junction allow the use of this probe in ovens or other cooking processes. Readings take only 2-3 seconds to a full value. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
THS-113-181 Miniature Needle Probe, 39" cable

Plug-Mounted Penetration Probe
Sharp penetration probe is mounted directly to an industry-standard miniature thermocouple plug. No cable included. Plug this probe directly into most thermocouple meters for a one-handed thermometer (meter/probe combination). Probe tip is swaged to a smaller diameter then sharpened for fast measurements and easy penetration. An optional detachable coiled or straight extension lead is also available. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
113-161 Plug-Mounted Penetration Probe 5"
113-167 Plug-Mounted Penetration Probe 9"

Plug-Mounted Surface Probe
Features a 0.32" diameter cylindrical head with a stainless steel ribbon. The thermocouple sensor is welded to the back of the ribbon. Max. temp. 482°F
113-045 Plug-Mounted Surface Probe - Straight

Plug-Mounted Mineral Insulated Probe
Flexible, high temperature, stainless steel, rounded tip mineral insulated probe. Ideal for measuring high temperature liquids. Maximum tip temperature 2012°F.
113-213 Plug-Mounted High Temperature Mineral Insulated Probe

Plug-Mounted Air/Gas Probe
The stainless steel shaft is open ended with ventilation holes provided in the sides to expose the bare thermocouple sensor to the outside for faster measurements of air or gases. Ideal for environmental readings, cold storage or HVAC work. Max. temp. 482°F.
113-301 Plug-Mounted Air/Gas Probe

High Temp Alligator Clip Oven Probe
Stainless steel overbraid protects this probe along with a fiberglass inner sheath. An alligator clip allows you to place it right where you need it. 120" lead. Max temp: 950°F (510°C).
8468-22 High Temp Alligator Clip Oven Probe

High Temp Wire Probe
Fibreglass insulation with exposed junction. Use for ovens and appliance temps. Max. Temp 662°F
113-382 39" length
113-383 78" length
113-385 10' length


Fast Response Penetration Probe
We start with an 1/8" shaft and reduce the diameter to 1/16" at 1 inch from the needle tip. This gives you a compromise between durability and the better speed of a needle type probe. Used in liquids and soft semi-solids including rubber, plastics and similar materials. A complete reading takes only 4 or 5 seconds. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
303-159 Fast Response Penetration, coiled cable


Smoke House Penetration Probe - Stainless Overbraid
Penetration probe with stainless steel overbraid and 90 degree bend. 78" lead. Max temp: 482°F (250°C).
THS-113-177 Smoke House Penetration Probe - Stainless overbraid


Smoke House Penetration Probe - Stainless Armour
Penetration probe with stainless steel Armour and 90 degree bend. 78" lead. Max temp: 662°F (350°C).
THS-113-178 Smoke House Penetration Probe - Stainless Armour


Right Angled Precision Surface Probe
This is the fastest and most accurate handheld surface probe we’ve seen. Readings generally take less than 5 seconds! The sensor is made from flat-spring ribbons of thermocouple material. Very popular in equipment servicing applications and in the plastics and packaging industries. The shaft has a right angle bend to improve access where the surface is hard to reach. Max. temp. 932°F
303-032 Right Angled Precision Surface Probe, coiled cable


Griddle Probe
Heavy duty weighted surface probe for measuring temperatures of hot plates and grills. Stainless steel armor protects the cable from hot surfaces. Uses the flat ribbon spring sensor design for speed and accuracy. Though designed for the fast food business, this probe is used by many other industries where it would be convenient to set the probe on a surface and leave it for extended measurements. Max. temp. 482°F
113-018 Griddle Probe
