MT730 Wood Moisture Meter

Pin-Type Wood Moisture Meter — Needle Probe, 16 Wood Groups, Field-Ready The MT730 drives a needle probe into the wood for a direct electrical-resistance reading, working on rough, uneven, and stacked lumber where a flat-contact meter cannot sit. Built for sawmills, lumber yards, and woodworkers who want a dependable field reading without software, calibration blocks, or setup.
  • Reads rough and uneven stock: the penetrating needle probe takes a reading where surface-contact meters cannot make firm contact.
  • Hardwood, softwood, and 16 wood groups: selectable calibrations cover general lumber and veneer across a wide species range.
  • Accurate where it counts: ±0.5% below 20% moisture, the working range for kiln-dried and finished lumber.
  • Straightforward and rugged: automatic temperature compensation, upper-limit alarm, and averaging in a meter that runs all day on AA batteries.
