Greetings,
I'm attempting to replace a simple glass fuse, but have found it
remarkably hard to find a replacement! I've scoured partsexpress.com
and mouser.com to no avail.
The fuse is a tiny little glass fuse approx 1/8" (.125") in diameter
and approximagely .375-.4375" (3/8 to 7/16", 10mm) length. 2AG's are
too long (listed as 0.6"), and... and I'm wondering if Littelfuse
PicoII fuses would do fine in this application (they have a 3.5A 125V
model and they would fit...).
Electrically, it's stamped 125V, 3.5A. It comes from a Royal paper
shredder that's about 5 years old, where it sports little axial lead
end caps soldered onto each end of the fuse (yes, I was naughty and
attempted to test the 3 sheet promise on the box).
TIA for any insight of advise. I'm wondering if things like the
Picofuse just supplanted these things and that's why I can't find
them.
Best Regards,
