Littelfuse 0362010.H Glass Cartridge Fuse - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Littelfuse 0362010.H is a 10 A, 32 V AC/DC fast-blow glass cartridge fuse in 8AG package format (1/4" x 1"). This component is designed for circuit protection in low-voltage applications requiring fast response characteristics. The part maintains active product status with 1135 units in current inventory. Alternative components may be required due to application voltage requirements, regional compliance specifications, or supply chain considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Littelfuse 0362010.H is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: Must be 10 A
• Fuse Type: Must be Cartridge, Glass
• Response Time: Must be Fast Blow
• Package / Case: Must be 8AG format with compatible physical dimensions (1/4" diameter)
• Mounting Type: Must require holder compatibility

The Eaton BK/AGX-10 meets these core substitution criteria. While the voltage rating differs (250 V AC versus 32 V AC), this represents an upgrade in voltage capability and does not compromise functionality in 32 V applications. The physical package dimensions remain compatible with standard 8AG holders.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Eaton BK/AGX-10 serves as a direct functional substitute for the Littelfuse 0362010.H based on matching current rating, fuse type, response characteristics, and 8AG package compatibility.

Selection considerations:

• The Eaton component carries cULus certification, providing recognized safety approval for North American markets.
• The Littelfuse 0362010.H maintains ROHS3 compliance, which may be required for specific applications or regional regulations.
• The Eaton BK/AGX-10 is RoHS non-compliant and should be evaluated against application compliance requirements.
• Both components feature identical current ratings and fast-blow response, ensuring equivalent circuit protection performance.
• The minor dimensional variance (1.000" versus 1.042" length) remains within standard 8AG holder tolerances.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Eaton BK/AGX-10 replace the Littelfuse 0362010.H in a 32 V circuit?

A: Yes. The Eaton component is rated for 250 V AC, which exceeds the 32 V requirement. Higher voltage ratings do not create compatibility issues in lower-voltage applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible with existing 8AG fuse holders?

A: Both components use the 8AG package format with 1/4" diameter. The length difference (0.042") falls within standard holder tolerances for this package type.

Q: What is the difference in response time between these components?

A: Both components are specified as fast-blow fuses and provide identical response characteristics for circuit protection.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect substitution?

A: RoHS compliance requirements depend on application and regional regulations. The Littelfuse component is ROHS3 compliant; the Eaton component is not. Verify compliance requirements before selection.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for these parts?

A: The Littelfuse 0362010.H has 1135 units in stock, while the Eaton BK/AGX-10 has 1772 units available. Both maintain active product status.
