- Dedicated Fit: It's designed for the C20 series, so it won't fit other thermometer brands.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Slice Pizzeria in Cardiff needed to streamline its food safety checks. Their old probes were slow and gave inconsistent readings, causing hold-ups during busy periods and adding stress to their HACCP logging.
"We switched to the Comark probes and the difference was immediate. The readings are fast and we trust them completely. It's taken a real weight off our minds, especially when the EHO is due. It just makes the whole process slicker."
Maria Rossi – Owner
The kitchen's temperature logging process is now 40% faster, allowing chefs to focus more on food and less on paperwork.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the probe and check for any damage to the cable or connector.
- Align the plug with the socket on your Comark C20 thermometer unit.
- Push firmly to ensure a secure connection for accurate readings.
- Turn on your thermometer and ensure it registers the probe is connected.
Keeping It Going
- Always clean the probe shaft with a food-safe antibacterial wipe between uses.
- Never submerge the handle or the cable connection in water.
- Store carefully to avoid bending the probe or damaging the cable.
- Periodically inspect the cable for any signs of wear, splits, or damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the thermometer unit included with this probe?
A: No, this is the F321 penetration probe only. It is designed to be used with the Comark C20 digital thermometer, which is sold separately.
Q: How fast will I get a temperature reading?
A: The probe is designed for a rapid response, typically providing a stable and accurate reading within just a few seconds.
Q: Can I use this probe to check frozen food?
A: While its range extends to -39.9°C, it's not recommended for hard-frozen foods as this can damage the fine tip. A dedicated frozen food probe is better suited for that task.
Q: Is the entire probe waterproof?
A: The stainless steel shaft is water-resistant and easy to clean, but the handle and the cable connection should never be submerged in water.
Q: What is the probe shaft made from?
A: It is constructed from high-quality, food-safe stainless steel, ensuring it's durable, hygienic, and won't affect the taste of your food.
Q: How long is the probe?
A: The stainless steel shaft has a length of 100mm, which is ideal for checking the core temperature of most common food items like chicken breasts, burgers, and pies.
Q: How should I clean the probe between uses?
A: The best practice is to thoroughly wipe the stainless steel shaft with a food-safe, anti-bacterial wipe after every single temperature check.
Q: Why is a penetration probe for a commercial kitchen better than an infrared thermometer?
A: An infrared thermometer only reads the surface temperature. A penetration probe is essential for food safety as it measures the internal core temperature, which is the only way to ensure food is cooked through and safe to eat.
The Comark Commitment: Accuracy You Can Trust
For decades, Comark has been a byword for accuracy and reliability in professional temperature monitoring.

This stainless steel food temperature probe provides the long-term value that comes from knowing every temperature check is accurate, protecting your customers, your brand, and your bottom line.
Explore more from ComarkWhy a Fine-Tipped Penetration Probe Makes All the Difference
Ever wondered why the shape of a thermometer probe matters so much? A 'penetration' probe like this one is designed with a sharp, fine tip for one crucial reason: to measure the absolute thermal centre of a food item with minimal disruption. Think of it like a doctor using a hypodermic needle instead of a big marker pen to take a blood sample – it's precise, clean, and gets right to where it needs to be.
This design allows the sensor to quickly reach the very core of a chicken breast or a thick lasagne, bypassing the cooler outer layers to give you a true reading of doneness and safety. A thicker, blunt probe would take longer, leave a bigger hole, and might only give you an average temperature, which isn't good enough when safety is on the line. This catering food probe thermometer attachment ensures you’re testing what really counts.
Who Should Buy This?
- Restaurants & Pubs: For nailing the perfect cook on steaks and roasts, and ensuring every dish leaves the pass safely.
- Mobile Caterers: Essential for verifying hot-hold temperatures at events, ensuring compliance and customer safety on the go.
- Butchers & Delis: Accurately check core temperatures of cooked meats and pies for quality control and EHO records.
- Care Homes & Schools: A must-have for large-scale catering where vulnerable groups require meticulously monitored food temperatures.
