My Autometer gauge pyrometer came with a 1/8" NPT with 1/4" compression for the pyro probe itself. The Jacobs brake is tapped with a 1/4" NPT.

Will I be be able to find at Home Depot a 1/4" NPT and 1/4" compression adapter to mount the pyro probe? Does it matter if it is brass?

 

Do not use brass!!!

Why not brass?

Thanks for the offer, I moved to Utah, spaced out updating my profile.

 

I read on here that it can't handle the heat...

 

Home Depot had the right bushing, but only in brass. Any ideas where else to look?

 

Seems as though the ISSPRO gauges use brass to mount the thermocouple. They also come with a 1/4" NPT insert to mount the thermocouple.

Anyone know if the ISSPRO Type K thermocouple will work on an Autometer gauge?

This is not supposed to be this hard.
