Synergistic Research Quantum Fuse

This fuse follows the standard 'Large' or '3AG' form factor, which measures 1.25 inches (approximately 32mm) in length and 0.25 inches (6.35mm) in diameter. Please measure your existing fuse or check your device specifications to ensure this physical size fits your fuse holder.
