Is the mercury tube broken ?

Any thought on this ?? Thanks Pat Pat, I've replaced quite a few of them, as long as you have the right size and have a accurate thermometer beside the one you are replacing so you can get the new one tied on in the correct temperature position, most of them tie on with metal bands.

There has to be a cheaper alternative than buying a new thermometer to cannibal it.
