Abstract
A probe cover for an infrared (IR) thermometer having two distinct portions, one which is substantially rigid, and the other which is stretchable by at least two times to envelop the probe of the IR thermometer. The stretchable portion allows IR radiation to pass toward the optical window of the IR thermometer probe. The rigid portion of the probe cover is engaged with the probe during the installation process.
