The VEE GEE 83025 nickel-plated brass armor case wraps a rigid metal shell around the thermometer, absorbing impact that would shatter glass on a bench or floor. A threaded screw cap secures the bulb end — the most fragile part — during storage and transport; a ring top allows the armored thermometer to hang from a hook, rack, or process vessel during use. Two lengths: 83025A for 12 in thermometers, 83025N for 15.5 in thermometers. Outside diameter 0.374 in (9.5 mm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"mb-2 mt-4 font-display font-semimedium text-base first:mt-0 md:text-lg [hr+\u0026amp;]:mt-4\"\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"marker:text-quiet list-disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNickel-Plated Brass Construction — Durable Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel-plated brass provides a hard, corrosion-resistant outer shell that absorbs impact and protects the enclosed thermometer from breakage during rough handling, field use, or industrial environments.
