Blade Fuses

A blown fuse is one of the most common - and most fixable - electrical faults in any vehicle. At the DIY Hardware Store, our blade fuses collection has everything you need to restore power to a failed circuit quickly, correctly, and without a trip to a specialist garage.

Blade fuses - also known as spade fuses or plug-in fuses - are the standard for automotive circuit protection in modern cars, vans, motorcycles, and light commercial vehicles. Their push-fit plastic body and two metal prongs make them straightforward to install and remove, even for a first-time DIYer. Each fuse carries a colour-coded body that corresponds to its amperage rating, so identifying and matching a replacement is fast and foolproof.

Our range covers two of the most widely used formats. Standard blade fuses (ATO/ATC) suit the majority of passenger cars and vans built since the 1980s and are the go-to choice for protecting circuits across lighting, accessories, and control systems. Mini blade fuses (APM/ATM) are smaller in footprint and are specified as standard on a wide range of European and Asian vehicles produced from the mid-1990s onwards - as well as being popular for camper van conversions, marine wiring, and custom electrical builds where fuse box space is limited.

Whether you need to replace a blown car fuse, stock up your workshop with a full assortment of ratings, or source reliable components for a wiring project, the DIY Hardware Store offers a dependable selection at everyday prices. Keeping the right fuses to hand means a failed circuit never has to mean a prolonged fault.
