Pearl Glass Fuse (PF036B)

Description

Genuine Pearl · Part no. PF036B

Pearl's PF036B glass fuses are the traditional tube type, a glass body with metal end caps and the fuse wire visible inside, used in older cars, in-line holders and many add-on accessories. Each one breaks the circuit when the current climbs past a safe level, stopping the wiring from overheating.

Good to know

• Which size and rating do I need? Glass fuses come in more than one length and diameter, and the listing doesn't state either or the rating, so match all three to the fuse you are replacing.
• How can I tell a glass fuse has blown? Look at the wire inside: a broken or melted wire, or a blackened tube, means it has gone.
• What if the end caps are corroded? Clean the holder's clips until bright, and check they still grip the caps firmly; poor contact can make a fuse run hot.

Which one?

For a range of ratings in one box, the live Pearl Fuses – Assorted Glass – Pack Of 120 (PXP102) holds 20 each of 5A to 30A; for the smaller radio size, the live Connect Fuses – Mini Glass Type – 2A – Pack Of 100 (30503).
