k-type thermocouple isolation to hot block is it necessary
-
hi, not to sure on this
do you have to isolate the thermocouple from touching the metal on the hot end block. I saw something in setup talking about isolating the thermocouple from the hot end and I am not sure what they meant or how to achieve this.

ceramic or pure quartz glass tube help you.

Yes. You can get mineral-insulated cartridge-type thermocouples that are already insulated.

this is what I got not sure if this one is the right one -
Look up its specification to see whether the thermocouple tip is insulated from the housing. Or check using a multimeter.

ya this one is Fibreglass insolated from the right up on it .on the hunt again think spool3d has one that looks right
