Thermocouple contacts are precision-engineered termination elements that form the electrical and mechanical interface between thermocouple sensing wires and mating connector bodies, accommodating dissimilar-metal wire pairs such as Type K (NiCr/NiAl), Type J (Fe/CuNi), and Type N across temperature measurement circuits in engine, APU, and environmental control system applications; they are manufactured to maintain thermoelectric integrity through controlled crimping or welding processes and comply with thermocouple-grade metallurgical specifications to minimise EMF error at the junction.
