20 AWG 2 Conductor Type K Stranded 482C Thermocouple Wire
20 AWG 2 Conductor Type K Stranded 482C Thermocouple Wire
Applications:
Used in general applications that call for moderate abrasion, moisture resistance, and extensive temperature capabilities. It is suitable for application in nuclear plants because of its relative stability in such conditions. Type K electrical wire is composed of a positive chromel wire and a negative alumel wire. This type of electrical wire has some of the most impressive temperature range characteristics among various thermocouple wires. The temperature range of the cable is between –270 C to 1260 C as a thermocouple grade wire is used, and 0 to 200 C as extension wire.
