A bimetallic strip is made from two combined metal strips that have different rates of expansion when heated. This causes the strip to bend and so close or open an electrical contact switch.
It Melts:P.
A bimetallic strip can be used as a thermometer or thermostat. The two metals expand at different rates which will make it bend. You can use this to find the temperature of an oven. When the temperature of the oven increases, the strip will curve and break the electrical contact which make the oven cool down. When the oven cools the bimetallic strip will become straight again and the electrical contact will be remade and the oven will begin to reheat again.
The two metals have different expansion rates when the strip is heated. This means that one of the metals will expand more than the other, causing the strip to bend.
When heat is applied to the end, one of the metals will expand faster than the other and the coil can operate a switch or valve just as the thermocouple does.
A thermostat is the most common item containing a bimetallic strip.

The bimetallic strip bends.
A bimetallic strip is made out of steel and iron
A bimetallic strip is a strip with two metals bonded together. It can be found in thermostats
A bimetallic strip is made out of copper and steel.
A bimetallic strip is used to convert a temperature change into mechanical displacement.
Bimetallic strip
When the temperature of the iron increases, the bimetallic strip bends upwards. This breaks the contact between the strip and the heating coil. When the temperature falls, the bimetallic strip bends down and the contact is restored.
