cant make out the brand, they can be specific so while it may suck, you may need to rid that one and buy the complete kit, best luck. If you have the brand name, go to a website and see if they sell the probe as well. Didnt the one you bought say what it came with?

is the probe matched with the gauge? it has to be the same brand and ment for the same gauge. theres a lot of specifics in resistance that make them non universal.

I am going to say that 85% of the pyrometers out there use Type K thermocouples.

Some of the gauge manufacturers use amplifier boxes, some of them don't.

If you can find a brand name, and they are still in business, going to them first would most likely be you best option.
