Overview Professional-grade 1/4" open tip thermocouple delivering precise exhaust gas temperature monitoring for serious engine builds. Essential for turbo setups, high-performance naturally aspirated engines, and any application where accurate EGT data prevents costly engine damage and optimises tune safety margins. Technical Specifications Part Number: HT-010860 Probe Diameter: 1/4" (6.35mm) Cable Length: 0.61m (24 inches) Tip Configuration: Open tip design Temperature Range: Suitable for EGT monitoring up to 1200°C Response Time: Fast response open junction design Why You Need This Exhaust gas temperature monitoring isn't optional in modern performance tuning — it's insurance against catastrophic engine failure. This 1/4" open tip thermocouple provides the rapid response and accuracy needed to catch dangerous EGT spikes before they melt pistons or damage turbine wheels. The open junction design offers faster thermal response than sheathed alternatives, crucial when monitoring rapid temperature changes during boost transitions or knock events. Perfect for turbo builds where EGT monitoring prevents turbine overheat, LS swap conversions requiring exhaust system optimisation, or rotary builds where running lean can happen quickly. We see this length specification work brilliantly in single-turbo setups where the probe mounts in the collector or manifold — the 24" cable reaches most ECU installations without requiring extension harnesses. Whether you're tuning a track-focused S14 SR20DET or a road-going RB25 conversion, accurate EGT data transforms guesswork into precision. ECU & System Compatibility Compatible with the full Haltech Elite and Nexus range, including Elite 550, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 models, plus Nexus R3 and R5 systems. Also works with Platinum series ECUs equipped with thermocouple inputs. Contact our technical team to confirm input channel availability and wiring requirements for your specific ECU configuration. What's in the Box Haltech 1/4" open tip thermocouple sensor 0.61m (24") integrated cable with bare wire termination Complete Your Build Most customers fitting EGT monitoring also require thermocouple extension cables for longer runs, exhaust bungs for manifold mounting, and protective sheathing for high-temperature environments. Our technical team can specify the complete temperature monitoring solution for your build, from sensor placement strategy to ECU input configuration. With our UK stock holding and pre-sales technical support, we'll ensure your EGT system integration goes smoothly first time.
