Just like the insertion length is known as "U" dimension,the lagging extension is designated at least in US is designated as "T".

You specify the "T" dimension as 1".

If you are using this thermowell for inserting a thermometer then be carefull because thermometers are only available in standard length.

THere is no problem if you are going to an RTD or thermocouple.
