Infrared Thermometer -20°C to 320°C Non-Contact Temp Gun

A handheld infrared laser thermometer for checking surface temperatures quickly without touching the item being tested. The gun-style body, built-in laser target pointer and clear temperature range make it a practical option for routine checks around the garage, workshop or home.

Used for checking pipes, radiators, engine bays, heating components, brakes, bearings and other surfaces where contact measurement is awkward or unsuitable. Useful for vehicle maintenance, fault finding, workshop checks and general servicing, especially when you need a fast reading from a safe distance rather than placing a probe directly onto the surface.

The measuring range runs from -20°C to 320°C, with the choice of Celsius or Fahrenheit depending on how you prefer to work. An 8:1 optical resolution helps with targeting at sensible working distances, while the 500mS response time gives quick readings during repeated checks. The lightweight body weighs around 125g and has an easy-grip gun shape for comfortable handling. Auto hold helps you note readings more easily, and the auto power-off after 7 seconds helps save battery life between jobs. A 9V battery is included, so it is ready to use straight away. For regular maintenance and temperature spot checks, this non-contact thermometer is a handy way to get quick surface readings without dragging out more involved test equipment.
