This weldless thermowell is made out of 304 stainless steel and can be added to any pot or kettle by drilling a 7/8" hole into the brew kettle. It uses 1/2" NPT threading and comes equipped with a nut, o-ring, and washer allowing it to be easily installed into the side of your vessel. The end that protrudes into the pot uses a 1/2" male NPT connection.Thermowells are installed onto brewing pots and kettles to allow a thermometer probe or even a temperature controller sensor to be inserted through its hollow tube. It is also used to keep the temperature sensors away from the liquid that it is immersed in. It protects the device from being exposed to the elements such as the flow-induced forces, pressure, and chemical effects of the boiling wort. The process fluid then transfers the heat to its walls which is then picked up by the sensor.While this weldless thermowell is compatible with ordinary brewing thermometers, it can also work well with other temperature control sensors such as those from the Ranco and Johnson brands.Thread Type*: National Pipe Thread (NPT)*BSP and NPT/NPS threads are NOT compatible with each other. When purchasing threaded hardware, it's crucial to verify that you are selecting the appropriate threaded fittings to meet your requirements. Unsure about thread type? Please consult the NPT thread chart HERE.Specifications: Made out of 304 Stainless Steel 1/2" NPT Connection Universal weldless design 3 1/2" Total Length 2 7/8" Probe Length 3/8" OD Probe 1/4" ID Probe Hole Compatible with Ranco and Johnson Digital Controls
