Tramex Heavy-Duty Pin-Type Wood Probe – Compatible with CMEX5 & MEX5

The Tramex Heavy-Duty Pin-Type Wood Probe is a robust, professional-grade accessory designed for accurate moisture measurement within and beneath wood substrates. Engineered for use with the Tramex CMEX5 and MEX5 meters, this pin-probe connects via bayonet-style accessory port and features a heavy-duty body with cable and precision pins.
It’s ideal when you need to measure moisture content in structural timber, floorboards, sub-floors, frames and other wood materials where surface non-destructive readings may not suffice.

What It’s For

• Restoration & remediation: verifying timber drying in water-damaged structures.
• Flooring & timber installation: checking hardwood, engineered boards, joists and sub-floors for moisture content.
• Building inspection & surveying: obtaining accurate moisture data deep in timber to support reports and compliance.
• Manufacturing & joinery QA: confirming wood stock moisture levels before processing.
  The HH14TP30B gives you a pin-type reading capability—essential when depth and subsurface measurement matter.

How It’s Used

1. Attach the probe to your Tramex CMEX5 or MEX5 meter via the bayonet accessory port.
2. Fit the required pins (for example, TP30 or TG30 pins) into the probe.
3. Position the probe tip on or into the timber surface and drive or insert the pins to the required depth.
4. Activate the meter, select the correct mode for pin-type measurement in wood, and record the moisture reading.
5. Repeat at several locations or depths to build up a moisture profile or map.
6. After testing, remove the pins, clean the probe and store it safely. Replace pins when worn.
