Water - great idea ( there might be a pun there too ;-) ). I have a couple, both with fairly short leads onto a circuit board. After blowing about 10 or so, and they're not that cheap to throw away, I came across your description in desperation. With a powerful soldering iron and a little bath made with a plastic milk bottle cap, that did the trick! Thanks for sharing!
thanks bro really helped me a lot God bless you I hope you get all the blessings you need you made it simple and you helped me during the time of me being confused God bless your sweet soul
These thermal fuse are there any polarity , can just connect any side to any wire no need + to + or - to - ? Please help as l about to change my fuse. Thanks
Naaa, the water doesn't cause problems because the thermal fuse is hermetically sealed, either with glass or a glasslike epoxy. As long as you dry it off after taking it out of the water, it shouldn't rust.
@Proximity Symbol - Right except when the thermal fuse blows, you'll have to cut your wire down to replace it. And if you don't have wire to spare, you're screwed the next time.
If the product's thermal fuse was originally soldered, then that's what you have to do when replacing it. Professionals use a heat skink to solder thermal fuses. This water trick is sort of a makeshift heat sink.
I am very new to electronics (only as a hobby, not my profession). Questions: 1) why is one end of the fuse shorter then another? 2) is it important how you connect it - "which way" should the "sharper" end face? 3) I would like to blow it that I connect some 9V battery to an LED via a resistor with having this fuse in the circuit. Using a lighter I would heat it up above 94*C. Any precautions maybe? I would probably use alligator clips for connecting the fuse to the linear circuit or maybe just some copper wire because I fear the clips will also overheat and maybe melt the rubber part. Fuse type: SEFUSE, sf90r0, 94*C, 15A
Clever idea to save the Thermal Fuse. Do you know if the Tapered side of the Thermal Fuses is supposed to be facing the Power Cords side?! I need to replace one for a Panini Grill, but I don't remember the orientation of the Thermal Fuse.
Polarity does not matter for thermal fuses. So it doesn't matter which direction you install it. This is not the rule of thumb for all electronic components of course so be sure to check out the manufacturer's data sheet for a quick lookup of each component you work on.

Great idea with the milk cap.
un-insulated butt crimp on connectors should be used

nice ! we use inline coupler lugs & crimp it

No polarity
@@RMarimat many thanks reply. Regards.
Great work brother'❤️
You can simply use thimbles/climpers to fix the fuse with a wire..just a suggestion please dont mind 😇
Is that an Ikea bowl?
How about a squirt of electriconic engineer's freezer spray?
Were do we find thermal fuse in zambia and how much
nice video, well explained
Nice video Where can i buy this my Friends ??
Hi, I've never tried this before but does the water not effect the fuse at all? I would think that the water would potentially cause a short.

pure genious
a thermal fuse shouldn't be soldered because it is going to be exposed to high temperatures and that wickens the joints. It should be crimped.
absolutely correct!!!
True, that's the electronic manufacturers do on their products. Me too.
my transformer fuse blew, and it was soldered.

Tnx bro
Sir thermal cutoff series connection parallel connection 128c+229c about plz
Super!
Crimp Crimp...
you cant always crimp, my thermal fuse is located within the transformer coil windings and would not fit if I used crimps....
why you dont put some high temperature flux i think it will reduce heat
NEVER solder thermal fuses FFS
