Fuse
Description
PS
E
The 2AG Slo-Blo
®
Fuses are available in cartridge form or
with axial leads. 2AG Fuses provide the same performance
characteristics as their 3AG counterpart, while occupying
one-third the space.
The fuse catalog number with the suffix “S” instantly
identifies itself upon opening by showing a discoloration
of its glass body. Guesswork and time consuming circuit
testing are eliminated. This unique design offers the same
quality performance characteristics as the standard 2AG
Slo-Blo
®
fuse design. When ordering the 2AG Indicating
Slo-Blo
®
Fuse, an 'S' is required after the catalog number.
