The Fastmate Racing RaceSense Adjustable Tyre Probe is designed for race mechanics and engineers seeking precise tyre temperature monitoring for optimal vehicle performance. Its key benefit is providing near-instantaneous, accurate readings without affecting tyre temperature, though users must ensure correct probe depth to avoid damage. This probe features a low thermal mass design and a quick-response thermocouple, allowing for real-time adjustments to tyre pressure and vehicle setup.

The probe is adjustable from 3mm to 5mm for consistent readings. It can be set up to a maximum of 15mm, but always ensure this depth does not compromise tyre integrity or manufacturer recommendations.
The quick-response thermocouple reaches 90% of the tyre's final temperature in just 2 seconds and 95% in 3 seconds, providing nearly instantaneous feedback.
Low thermal mass means the probe absorbs very little heat. This is crucial because it ensures the probe accurately measures the tyre's temperature without significantly cooling the tyre surface itself, leading to more reliable data.
The probe uses a thermocouple, which is compatible with most professional racing data acquisition systems and temperature gauges that accept thermocouple inputs. Check your system's specifications for compatibility.
Regular cleaning of the probe tip with a soft cloth after use and proper storage in a protective case are recommended to maintain accuracy and longevity.
No, the Fastmate Racing RaceSense Adjustable Tyre Probe is a standalone sensor. It requires a compatible temperature display unit or data logger to show the readings.
Check that the probe depth is set correctly and consistently. Ensure the probe tip is clean and free from debris. Verify the connection to the display unit or data logger is secure.
Confirm the probe is properly connected to the display unit/data logger. Check the compatibility of the thermocouple type with your system. Inspect the cable for any visible damage.
Gently twist the adjustment mechanism. If it feels stuck, ensure no debris is obstructing the threads. Avoid forcing the adjustment, as this may cause damage.
