Littelfuse, Inc., an industrial technology manufacturing company empowering a sustainable, connected, and safer world, has introduced hex-screw head options for its 60 Ampere models for the LFR and LFT series of fuse blocks. This easy-to-use screw head style is ideal for manufacturing automation, helping OEMs simplify the tightening process for their components to reduce assembly errors.
"When a major OEM approached Littelfuse about the challenges they were having with their installation tightening processes, we immediately committed to helping them find a solution," stated Craig Greeson, product manager, Littelfuse Industrial Business Unit. "The new 60 Ampere fuse blocks are part of a series designed with hex-screws for assembly applications that need to be precise and repeatable to increase manufacturing efficiencies and produce high-quality products."
Hex-screw 60 Ampere fuse blocks:
- - Accommodate a wide range of existing mounting configurations
- - Feature a snap-to-release DIN-rail mounting for easier installations
- - Include reinforced fuse clips for increased reliability

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
