Drilling a 1/8” Thermocouple Hole  
1 Drill a 1/8” hole in either a row of blank bricks or between  
two brick rows, approximately midway between floor and top.  
Avoid drilling closer than 1" to a heating element. Use a tape  
measure, if needed, and mark the location of the hole on the  
kiln case.  
Important: Do not bend or cut the thermocouple.  
You can install the thermocouple (temperature sensor)  
through an existing ½” thermocouple hole, through a drilled  
peephole plug, or by drilling a new hole in the kiln.  
Using a drilled peephole plug to attach the thermocouple to the  
kiln. Make sure the thermocouple does not fall out of the kiln.  
2 Wearing safety glasses, drill a 1/8" hole all the way through  
If you use an existing ½” hole, first insert the porcelain insu-  
lator on the thermocouple. Then insert the thermocouple into  
the hole. The thermocouple must protrude into the firing  
chamber at least ½” to 5/8”.  
the kiln case and wall.  
3 Enlarge the 1/8” hole in  
the kiln case to 1/4". Using a  
¼” drill bit, drill just deep  
enough to go through the  
case and no further. Enlarg-  
ing the hole in the kiln case to  
1/4" will prevent the thermo-  
couple from touching the  
grounded steel case.  
IMPORTANT! If the thermocouple falls out of the kiln dur-  
ing firing or if the tip moves out of the firing chamber, the  
kiln will over-fire. Monitor the kiln during firing to make  
sure the thermocouple has not moved.  
4 Press the thermocouple  
into the hole so that ½” to  
5/8" or more of the tip pro-  
trudes into the firing cham-  
ber.  
REMINDER: If the ther-  
mocouple is pulled out of  
the hole, the kiln will  
overfire.  
5 Position the thermocouple lead wires so they are away from  
the hot sides of the kiln case, the cord set, or any other electri-  
cal appliances or wiring.
