Acupuncture Probe Set (TA008)
The TA008 is a back pinning probe
First and foremost the TA008 is a back pinning probe. In fact, it’s the smallest diameter back pinning probe that we know of. This is essential for probing today's small, fragile connector. It is also very sharp, so it slides past connector seals with ease. This product solves most of the problems associated with traditional back-pinning methods.
The TA008 is a piercing probe
Secondly, the TA008 is a piercing probe. Its small diameter, extra sharp pin makes it ideal for piercing the insulation on small gauge wires where traditional piercing tools might cause damage.
The TA008 is field repairable
And finally, here's the best part. Don't you just hate it when you are using a back pinning probe and it bends or breaks? Before the TA008 came along, this meant that you had to buy a whole new back-probe. Not with the TA008; it's repairable. If the pin becomes damaged or useless in any way, simply take your pocket screwdriver, remove the set screw, pull out the old pin and install the new one! There's no need to replace the whole probe.

The crocodile clips are fully insulated with a 4 mm socket in the handle, offering an easy connection to the TA000 test lead. The toothed grip offers good contact on fine wire, with a 30 mm jaw opening limit.

Price £5.00 (approx $8.25 (US) / €5.85)
Small Crocodile/Gator Clips (TA003)
- Length: 54.5 mm
- Height: 17.5 mm
- Depth: 7.5 mm
- Clamping limit: 11 mm
The crocodile clips are fully insulated with a 4 mm socket in the handle, offering an easy connection to the TA000 test lead. The toothed grip offers good contact on fine wire, with a 11 mm jaw opening limit.

Price £3.00 (approx $4.95 (US) / €3.51)
Piercing Clips (TA007)
The TA007 Insulation Piercing Test Clip set is ideally suited for automotive test and diagnosis. The piercing clips allow the user to provide the exact pressure needed to pierce the insulation of a wide range of wire types and sizes. The clips also feature a rotating banana jack that prevents the test lead from twisting and keeps the oscilloscope in the circuit while the wire is pierced, providing immediate confirmation that contact with the conductor has been made.

Sprung Hook Probe (TA089)
- Length: 121 mm
- Height: 23 mm
- Hook limit: 10 mm
- Rating: 1000 volts CAT III 20 amps
These probes feature a shrouded 4 mm socket and allow you to hook your test lead on to small components. The hook can hold conductors up to 10 mm in diameter.
Price £4.00 (approx $6.60 (US) / €4.68)
Shrouded to Unshrouded Adapter (TA016)
Shrouded-to-unshrouded adapters are for use with plugging the TA000 test leads into older style break out boxes that are not designed for use with shrouded 4 mm connectors.
Price £1.00 (approx $1.65 (US) / €1.17)
BNC to 4 mm Adapter (MI078)
- Length: 63 mm
- Height: 18.5 mm
- Width: 34 mm
The BNC to 4 mm adapter connects two 4 mm (“banana”) plugs to a BNC socket. If you have a sensor such as a current clamp with 4 mm plug outputs, for example, this adapter allows you to plug it into a PicoScope Automotive Oscilloscope with a BNC input. The 4 mm sockets and BNC plug are fully shrouded for safety.
Price £10.00 (approx $16.50 (US) / €11.70)
