During swaging the insulators crush readily into a powder, compacted around the thermocouple wires, providing electrical insulation resistance.
Outer diameters between 0.5 mm and 12.7 mm are available, with hole diameters in the range of 0.18 mm to 1.75 mm.
The number of holes in an insulator can range from 1 to 6.
Insulator lengths are available in 25.4 mm increments up to 101.6 mm maximum.
