Connecting tip for TCK type K
Connecting tip for TCK type K
(OP)
Hi,
I need to connect my TCK type K to the brass component which has working temperature approximately 200degC.
I intend to drill/tap a hole in the brass (M3) and fix TCK to it with a bolt.
I wonder whether using ring crimp terminal as the tip for the termocouple would be a good option.

If yes, I think it would be good to use brass made rings.
What do you think? Is the ring crimp terminal a right choice as the connection tip for TCK type K?
Please help.
Thank you.
Regards

Thank you for your reply.
The connection between the brass component and the TCK type K tip needs to be demountable.

I assume that you're aware that t/c's with this style of mounting are commercially available, e.g. http://www.omega.com/pptst/WT.html The #6 size has a 3.5mm clearance hole.

This is one of the options, nevertheless, I would prefer little bit more 'tidy' connection.

The ring lug would be very small 5-10mm diameter.
The brass component size is 50mmx59mmx2000mm.
Adding fixing tips should not change thermal balance.
Besides, the brass component is intensively heated with powerful electric elements.
I came across commercially available components but not these. I check them thank you.
