Eaton Bussmann gma-1.6-r Glass Fuse 1.6A 250V 5-pack

Product Description

The EATON BUSSMANN gma-1.6-r is a fast-acting, single-element glass fuse rated at 1.6 amps and 250 volts AC. Part of the GMA Series, this cylindrical fuse measures 5mm in diameter and 20mm in length, conforming to the standard 5x20mm form factor widely used in electronic equipment, control panels, and instrumentation. The fuse features a non-rejection body style and is sold in a 5-pack. It is specified for applications requiring a fast-acting response to overcurrent events, providing reliable short-circuit protection in low-current circuits.

This fuse is suited for residential and light commercial electronic equipment, instrumentation panels, and control circuits where a 5x20mm glass fuse is the specified protection device. It is compatible with the HTB series fuse block for secure, code-compliant mounting. Electricians and electronics technicians specify this series for PCB-mounted fuseholders, inline fuse clips, and panelboard applications where compact, fast-acting overcurrent protection is required.
