Special features
End stop
End-stop design provides mechanical restraint that prevents fuse over-insertion, reducing the risk of damage to fuses and holders, which translates to less downtime and fewer service calls. This feature directly improves installation reliability in panel boards and machine enclosures, especially in high-traffic production lines. Nickel finish offers corrosion resistance in damp or dusty environments, extending clip life and maintaining consistent electrical contact over time. The use of spring bronze ensures low contact resistance and durable spring performance, contributing to stable fuse seating and predictable protection in electrical protection circuits. Bulk packaging reduces procurement overhead and supports streamlined maintenance programs, while the non-indicating feature minimizes visual maintenance tasks in cluttered control panels. Compatibility with Eaton Bussmann series 5900 fuses simplifies spares management and ensures supply chain continuity for service fleets. RoHS compliance reinforces regulatory alignment for electronics manufacturing and assembly, helping you meet environmental standards while controlling total cost of ownership.
