Thermowell Adapter for 1.25-18NEF Straight Thread connection

Thermowell Adapter for 1.25-18NEF Straight Thread connection

(OP)
I have tanks which I am installing temperature probes in.  The existing thermowells on the tank are 1.25-18NEF Straight thread.  Where can I get an adapter for this thread connection so I can install a normally threaded RTD probe.

RE: Thermowell Adapter for 1.25-18NEF Straight Thread connection

I don't know any companies that have these on the shelf.  If you need quick turn around go to a local machine shop. Otherwise contact one of the Thermowell manufacturing firms such as Mac-Weld Machining & Manufacturing LTD. http://www.mac-weld.com/

Straight threads are not effective as a process seal. How are you dealing with leakage?
