Description
Workshop staple in bulk—100 x 20A blade fuses for the bench, toolbox, or service bay.
Product Overview
The OEX ACX1605 delivers 100 x 20-amp standard blade fuses in one workshop-ready pack, eliminating the frustration of running out mid-job or making emergency trips to suppliers. These yellow-coded 20A fuses fit the standard ATO/ATC blade fuse slots found across virtually every Australian vehicle from the 1980s onwards, plus caravans, boats, and 12V accessories. At 19mm x 19mm dimensions, they're the universal automotive fuse standard that protects circuits in everything from basic lighting and accessories through to moderate-draw equipment like auxiliary pumps, fans, and 12V outlets. OEX backs these fuses with a 1-year warranty, and bulk pack pricing makes this the smart buy for workshops, auto electricians, fleet maintenance, or serious DIYers who value having the right fuse on hand when a circuit blows.

Features & Benefits
100-Pack Eliminates "Out of Stock" Panic
Keep 100 x 20A fuses on the shelf and you'll never halt a job searching through mixed fuse assortments or discovering you're fresh out when a customer's auxiliary circuit blows. Perfect for workshops doing regular auto electrical work, service bays replacing blown fuses during routine maintenance, or fleet operators maintaining multiple vehicles.
20-Amp Rating for Common Auxiliary Circuits
The 20A rating suits a huge range of automotive applications: 12V accessory sockets (cigarette lighter outlets), auxiliary lighting circuits, electric fuel pumps, cooling fans, car audio head units, reversing cameras, and aftermarket accessories drawing 10-18 amps continuous. It's the Goldilocks rating between light-duty 10A/15A circuits and heavy-duty 25A/30A loads.
Yellow Industry Colour Coding
Yellow housing instantly identifies these as 20A fuses, matching the universal automotive colour standard used across virtually every vehicle manufacturer. No squinting at tiny amp markings—grab yellow, you've got 20 amps. Critical when you're fault-finding under a dash or working in poor light.
Standard Blade Fitment Across Decades of Vehicles
These 19mm x 19mm standard blade fuses (ATO/ATC type) fit the fuse boxes in Australian-delivered vehicles from the mid-1980s through to current models, plus the majority of caravans, camper trailers, boats, and 12V accessory installations. One fuse type covers an enormous application range.
OEX Quality at Bulk Pack Pricing
OEX is a trusted Australian brand in auto electrical components, and buying 100-packs delivers better value per fuse than retail blister packs while ensuring consistent quality across the batch. These aren't marketplace specials of unknown origin—they're backed by OEX's 1-year warranty.
Workshop-Friendly Packaging
The bulk pack format suits workshop parts bins, service van storage, or toolbox organisation. Decant into labelled containers for quick access, or keep the pack intact for inventory control in commercial environments.
Also Available in 5-Packs for Retail
If you're a DIY customer needing a handful rather than a hundred, OEX offers the same fuse in 5-packs (ACX1605BL) for glovebox spares or single-vehicle use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between standard and mini blade fuses?
Standard blade fuses (19mm x 19mm, like these) are the original automotive blade fuse used since the 1980s. Mini blade fuses are smaller (10.9mm x 16mm) and found in newer vehicles with compact fuse boxes—these standard fuses won't fit mini fuse slots.
Can I use a 20A fuse in a circuit that originally had 15A?
No—always replace fuses with the same amperage rating specified by the vehicle or equipment manufacturer. Using higher-rated fuses removes overcurrent protection and risks circuit damage or fire if a fault occurs.
What automotive circuits typically use 20A fuses?
Common 20A applications include 12V accessory sockets, auxiliary lighting circuits, electric fuel pumps, radiator cooling fans, car stereo head units, reversing cameras, trailer brake controllers, and aftermarket accessories drawing 10-18 amps continuous load.
Are these fuses suitable for marine or caravan use?
Yes, standard blade fuses are widely used in caravans, camper trailers, and boats for 12V DC circuits. The 20A rating suits water pumps, interior lighting circuits, 12V outlets, and moderate-draw accessories in recreational vehicle applications.
What's the shelf life of unused blade fuses?
Blade fuses have no practical shelf life when stored in dry conditions away from corrosive environments. The zinc alloy terminals may develop surface oxidation over many years, but this won't affect performance in typical workshop storage.
