The Tempil Tempilstik 400°F (204°C) is the industry standard for surface temperature measurement, offering a simple, rugged, and reliable solution for welders, metalworkers, and inspectors. For over 80 years, Tempilstik has been the go-to tool for verifying critical temperatures in fabrication environments where precision is paramount. Unlike electronic sensors that can drift or require calibration, the Tempilstik relies on the immutable laws of physics—the melting point of a calibrated chemical compound—to provide an accuracy of +/- 1%.
This specific stick is formulated to melt at exactly 400°F (204°C). It is widely used to ensure compliance with welding procedures (WPS) regarding preheat and interpass temperatures. Proper thermal management is essential to prevent cracking, warping, and metallurgical defects in sensitive alloys. The Tempilstik allows operators to quickly verify that the base material has reached the required temperature before striking an arc, or to monitor heat input during multi-pass welding.
The product comes in a durable, slip-resistant metal holder that protects the stick from breakage and allows for easy handling, even with heavy welding gloves. The holder also features a pocket clip, ensuring the tool is always within reach. Each batch is laboratory tested and traceable to NIST standards, providing the documentation and confidence needed for code-compliant work in sectors such as construction, petrochemical, and power generation.
