In what package quantity are the thermocouple pins and sockets in the MTC series? Is the quote price per each, or are multiple items included in an order quantity of one?

Asked by: Anonymous
These pins are sold individually. e.g. cost for MTC-IR-P "iron pin" is $16.65 each. Thank you for your question.

I ordered 2 EA of MTC-5-MC and 2 EA of MTC-5-FF What pins and sockets do i need to purchase for this. They are for connection of non contact infrared temperature sensors to a testing enclosure used to monitor our rebuilt equipment

Asked by: Dustin
You will need the copper pins, male and female: MTC-CU-P- and MTC-CU-S. OR if you want them gold-plated for longer lasting connection, use MTC-AU-P and MC-AU-S. Thank you.

I'm looking for a type E pin but the drop down list only shows a K,E option. Do you have just the type E pin?

Asked by: lester
Thank you for your inquiry. The reason you see the K, E option is because both K type and E type thermocouples use the same alloy for the positive lead and the same applies for the negative lead for J, T and E types. Here are the part numbers for the E type pins: +ve lead - Item# MTC-CH-P, -ve lead - Item# MTC-CO-P.

My copper thermocouple pins (HPC-CU-P) are getting corrosion. They are installed in a MTC-24-MC connector with a MTC-24-SHL back shell. Have you seen this before? Any advice on how to prevent or slow this down?

Asked by: JackW
Hi JackW, We do not offer a water sealing boot to fit the MTC series unfortunately. 3rd party supplier may offer protective boot to cover the MTC connectors. We have a boot to cover the SMPW and OSTW connectors but nothing similar for the MTC's. Best regards OMEGA

What is the difference between this contacts and the Crimp-Style Thermocouple Pin & Socket Contacts - Hollow Core (HPC-AL-S)? Which is 5 times the price of MTC-AL-S... Is this good for thermocouple type K (5TC-TT-K-40-72-ROHS), with diameter as 0.08mm?

Asked by: seraph3
The MTC pins and sockets are precision machined and used with the MTC housings. The HPC are stamped pins and sockets and are usually used in the SMTC connectors but can be used in MTC housings as well. The MTC's are individual and the HPC come in packs of 20 and both are used with 20 or 24 AWG stranded wires.
