I have never heard of taping a thermocouple. may i suggest simple Loctite and eccelerator for quick application, a dip of thermal transfer paste would also be good for good concise measurements.

Currently I looked at an SMPS that is operating at a temperature of 120 degC under an ambient temperature of 20 degC. The tape seems not very reliable and rigid enough for long period of testing. Is there any other more suitable means to attach the thermocouple to such high temperature point of interest? The spec quotes the max temperature of 150 degC. Is it normal for the rectifier to have such high operating temperature?
