Blade Style Fuses
APM and ATM-LP fuses are low-profile versions of the standard mini-blade fuse. The main difference is their shorter height, which makes them ideal for tight spaces in automotive systems, electronics, and other compact devices. While they function the same as regular mini-blade fuses—protecting circuits from overloads—their reduced size allows them to fit in places where space is limited without compromising on safety.
These fuses are commonly used in automotive systems, small electronics, and portable devices, offering reliable protection in confined areas. So, if you're working with compact electrical systems, APM and ATM-LP fuses might be the perfect solution for your needs.
ATC and ATO fuses are both common types of automotive blade fuses, designed to protect your vehicle’s electrical system from overloads. While they look similar, their main difference is in their design and specific applications. However, they are interchangeable as long as they have the same amperage rating. When replacing a fuse, the key factor is ensuring the amperage matches the original to avoid electrical issues. Always double-check the fuse rating and refer to your vehicle’s manual for the best fit.
ATM fuses (also called Mini Blade Fuses) are a specific type of blade fuse that is compact and widely used in automotive applications. They are smaller than standard blade fuses, with a thinner profile, making them ideal for space-constrained areas in vehicles. The fuse typically has two metal prongs (blades) that connect to the fuse box, and the fuse element inside the plastic body melts when there is an electrical overload, protecting the circuit from damage.
Mini Blade Fuses come in various amperage ratings, typically ranging from 1A to 30A, and they are color-coded for easy identification of their amperage values. They are popular because of their reliability, compactness, and ease of installation and replacement in modern vehicle electrical systems.
TR/ATM fuses, also known as micro-blade fuses, are small, efficient fuses commonly found in modern vehicles with advanced electronics. They are smaller than mini-blade fuses, making them ideal for tight spaces. These fuses can handle currents up to 30 amperes and are designed to last longer with corrosion resistance and electrical isolation. Color-coding helps easily identify their amp rating, ensuring quick and accurate replacements. Overall, ATR/ATM fuses provide reliable protection for your vehicle's electrical system.
Maxi blade fuses, also known as MAX fuses, are large, color-coded fuses used to protect high-current electrical circuits in vehicles and heavy equipment. They are designed to prevent damage from excess current by blowing when the circuit is overloaded. With their fast-acting nature and predictable time delay, maxi blade fuses are essential for safety and reliability in high-amperage applications. Made of durable plastic, they’re easy to install and identify, ensuring the right protection for your electrical systems.
