Tramex Hammer-Action Pin Probe: Deep Wood Moisture Profiling

The Tramex Hammer-Action Pin-Type Electrode (TM-HE1.5) is the essential accessory for professionals needing deep, accurate moisture readings in dense timber and wood products. When paired with your Tramex CMEX5 or MEX5 meter, this heavy-duty probe uses 1.5-inch insulated pins to penetrate structural wood up to approx 35mm deep. It is designed for moisture gradient mapping, confirming successful drying in restoration, and ensuring the structural integrity of wood, delivering the precision profiling required by flooring specialists, surveyors, and restorers.

 

Product Overview:

The Tramex TM-HE1.5 Hammer Electrode transforms your non-destructive Tramex meter into a powerful pin-type moisture profiler. This is crucial when surface readings are insufficient or when moisture may be trapped beneath coatings, finishes, or in the core of thick timber elements.

Key Features & Professional Advantages:

  • Deep Sub-Surface Measurement: Utilizes 1.5”(approx 35mm) insulated pins (SP52) to reach moisture deep within timber, ensuring you measure the true core moisture content, not just the surface.
  • Accurate Moisture Profiling: The hammer-action design allows technicians to gently drive the pins to a precise, repeatable depth. This capability is vital for mapping moisture gradients throughout the wood structure during water damage restoration.
  • Insulated Pin Technology: The insulation on the SP52 pins ensures that only the uninsulated tips are conductive, preventing surface moisture interference and isolating the reading to the desired depth for reliable data.
  • Rugged Construction: Built with a durable handle and shielded cable, the TM-HE1.5 is engineered for heavy-duty, consistent use in demanding field environments like construction sites and water damage projects.
  • Seamless Tramex Compatibility: Quickly and securely connects to your Tramex CMEX5 or MEX5 meter via the supplied shielded cable and standard Tramex bayonet fitting, instantly converting the meter to pin-mode functionality.

Ideal Applications:

  1. Water Damage Restoration: Monitor and document the drying progress in structural timber, framing, and thick wood members to verify drying completion.
  2. Flooring & Subfloors: Check the moisture content (% MC) of thick hardwood, engineered flooring, and subfloors to meet manufacturing and installation specifications.
  3. Building Surveying: Investigate concealed moisture sources or hidden structural leaks behind finishes in timber-framed buildings.
  4. Quality Assurance (QA): Verify the moisture content of wood products in manufacturing and joinery before assembly or shipment.
