A Bayonet Thermocouple is a specific kind of thermocouple that connects to processes via a Bayonet mounting system.
It is possible to say that a bayonet mount or bayonet fastener is a type of fastening mechanism made up of a cylindrical male side with pins mounted radially and a female receptor with L-shaped slots that match the pins and spring(s) that push the components together.
