A stainless long thermowell with slotted tip – the slot lets the sensing element see the media directly through the side of the well for faster response, while the stainless body still shields it from flow force and abrasion.
Function and Design
Most of the difficulty in a long thermowell is invisible: wall consistency, concentricity, burr control. The long thermowell is checked against the drawing at each stage, not only at final inspection.
What Makes It Work
- Slots are pierced with hard tooling – clean edges at exact positions, batch after batch.
- The stainless surface is the finish – nothing to chip in washdown or humid service.
- Family page only: your dimensions and features come from your print.
- Material: Standard stock covers stainless steel (304 / 316); equivalents are feasibility-checked against your print before quoting.
- Process: deep drawn long thermowell body with in-die piercing, sealing faces finished by turning, burr-free piercing on the second operation.
- Finish: Finish for the long thermowell is agreed at sample stage and logged on the job card.
- Size: Size is taken from the customer drawing; the long thermowell family range gives a starting point for quotation.
- Custom: OEM/ODM to drawing; the long thermowell is quoted with real lead times, not estimates.
Applications
It earns its place in HVAC and refrigeration sensors, thermowells for pipes and tanks, household appliance thermometers.
Our Production Advantage
First articles are pressure- and dimension-checked before release. First articles are dimension-checked and pressure-tested, and production is sampled against the approved part.
