Your reply doesn't address the OP's problem, and I believe what
you're thinking of is Chromel, not Nichrome.


Several Suppliers sell Thermocouple wire as coated, insulated Pairs, in
different gauges. Nichrome, Chromel are trade names for various
Nickel/Chromium alloys. A Type K thermocouple is Chromel A/Alumel I recall
ordering insulated Nichrome wire from OMEGA Engineering several years ago.

Google Omega Engineering, or try Omega.com

Thanks. Useful table here.

I would not have looked at iron-chrome-aluminum, but it has good properties
for me. Might be expensive to just pull off the other side, but very
convenient. Even easier to leave it in place and leave it unconnected.
