Thermocouple
I bought this a few weeks ago. I've had issue with the metal ring that holds the sheathing on but other than that it's been a good sturdy product.

Braided Ceramic Very High Temperature
This works just as promised on published specification sheet. Have used it multiple times. Never had any quality related issues.

XC-24-K and 5TC-TT-K-20-36
Using XC-24-K and 5TC-TT-K-20-36 since 8 and 1 year respectively. Former is very sturdy and insulation works fine till 800C for about a week of continuous exposure. ( max. we tried), Latter is very responsive to small temperature changes but amenable to insulation damage at high temperatures.
Both has a very minimal (<0.1 degree) noise when used with standard recorder?controllers- Omega: OMDAQXL or Eurotherm: Nanodac or 2416
Overall a good and stable response.

How many wires do you get? 4 like shown or just 1?
The XC-14-K-24 is sold individually.

Hi, how inaccurate will the XC-20-K-24 (TC) be if I buy without calibration?
Without the calibration the tolerance specifications would be +/- 1.1°C or 0.4%.
