On my lunch break researching for my build and came across these. Thought they might be useful for automating the injection of secondary air as the system heats up and shutting it down during the cool down phase.

By metal actuators are weak, but very precise. That's why they are used a lot in thermometers and thermostat. When a lot of force is needed, wax is the way to go, like the thermostat in your car's cooling system. Very common in industrial settings.

Unfortunately, those wax actuators are very expensive. Unless someone knew of a second hand source?
