We specialise in the manufacture of thermocouple sensors designed and certified for various aerospace applications. We manufacture both the more popular Type K and Type N thermocouples plus we also manufacture any sensor in types T, J, R and S, which are also used in the aerospace industry. All sensor styles are offered in a wide range of terminations and sheath diameter options.

Through a system of pre-testing of the more widely used Type N and Type K thermocouple material, TC are able to offer high-accuracy custom made, certified sensors on a quick delivery for these thermocouple types. Other thermocouple types or custom temperature calibration points are also available.

We are ISO 9001 certified and our thermocouple material is calibrated in our ISO 17025 UKAS-approved laboratory.

Various styles of sensor, suitable for many processes and applications in the aerospace industry are available. These include: 

• Heat treatment of component parts in both vacuum furnaces and atmospheric furnaces
• Composites, both expendable and non-expendable
• Autoclaves
• Aluminium casting and extrusion of component parts
• Landing systems

Our material is calibrated and stocked in line with the AMS2750G specifications. We can also supply sensors compliant with BAC5621 for the heat treatment of parts.

Our sensors are suitable for use in Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS), System Accuracy Tests (SAT) and Control Recording and Monitoring and Load Sensors.

The pre-tested AMS2750G compliant material we hold in stock  is also widely used for thermocouple sensors used in the production of composites and extruded products.

In addition to temperature sensors, we can also manufacture the associated cable harnesses, looms and assemblies which are critical throughout temperature measurement processes in the production and development of aircraft and rotorcraft. These can be made with any number of connections, to any length required, with connectors at each end or bare tails to retrofit on site.

We have over 2 million metres of thermocouple extension and compensating cable in stock ready for next day delivery.
