ABSTRACT:
A temperature sensor sheath (12) includes at least one stress concentrating structure (30) and preferably a plurality of such structures spaced apart along the length of the sheath (12). Each stress concentrating structure (30) produces a severe stress riser when the sheath (12) is subjected to a bending moment and allows the sheath (12) to be broken easily by applying a bending force back and forth. The stress concentrating structures (30) each preferably comprise a groove (32) formed or cut into the sheath material around the perimeter of the sheath (12).
