18W Fuse Holder

Post by Joe Blow »

What do you all use for a fuse holder in your 18W build?
I have one of the VHT chassis I'm finally getting around to building, and after opening up the holes to use CTS pots, I realize the fuse holders I've been using, (mostly Fender types), are way too small. I look online and see Marshall type "snap-in" that are billed as fitting a 5/8" hole. The chassis hole is ,605 with a notch, I'm just wondering if the "snap-in" bracket has enough "give" to fit?
Thanks for your help!

I just posed a not too dissimilar question in another thread.
I'm interested in knowing more about this too

I use combo IEC inlets that include a fuse housing built in.

Here's one I use sometimes: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/562-719W-00-02

I also use this filtered type: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/631-FN9260-10-06

For a basic standalone fuse, I've used this (this one is too small for a 5/8 hole though): https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/693-3101.0215

I've also used the standard Marshall style from amp part suppliers. For example: https://www.amplifiedparts.com/products ... l-14-fuses
The dimensions for this one are likely what you need Joe:

Thanks, Josh, that was the one I was looking at!
Just went through my parts today, everything I have is too big, or small.
I appreciate the help!
