Keep your temperatures in check with the Mishimoto thermostatic sandwich plate.

This sandwich plate includes two 1/8 NPT ports for use with temperature or pressure sensors. As with all our products, this sandwich plate includes the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty, ensuring superior product quality and craftsmanship.
