Anyone got a spare "Slydlok" 30 A fuse holder?

Hi all,

Yesterday I picked up two 2 kVA 230 V -> 110 V transformers. One I plan to use to run 110 V tools in the workshop, and the other I plan to rewind for my phase convertor.

While loading the transformers I unfortunately knocked a wrench off a shelf. It fell inside one transformer and cracked a fuse holder. Damn! That's the third stupid thing like that I've done in the last couple of months...

On the plus side, I noticed that the fixed part of another fuse holder is cracked, so I needed a replacement anyway. But a single replacement unit will do. The fuse holder is marked "Slydlok" and is rated at 30 A. Anyone got a spare lying in their parts box or junk pile? It's a component that probably turns up in industrial equipment pretty often, but you wouldn't notice it unless you were looking for one. Please let me know if you have; it would be appreciated.

Here's a picture of the transformers. The fuse holders are visible, and the motor for my phase convertor is to the side:

Best wishes,

Hey Chris,

I really can't tell from the photo, and memory ain't what it used to be on the "SLydlok" word, but is there a chance that these are the type of protection that give a mechanical annunciation (maybe "flip up" when they trip/blow? If so, that would be VERY old technology, and I would simply replace with a standard fuse holder or a circuit breaker.

Take care.

Brian Laws>Hi all,

No, they're just fuse holders, but you push them down and slide to lock in place. I've seen them before but I don't recall where. I might replace it with a breaker, but I'd prefer to keep the fuse holders authentic if I can.

Best wishes,

Chris
