Our take on the StreetWires FHXL4 Fuse Holder

The StreetWires 4-gauge ANL fuse holder is for use in your high-power amplifier setup. A three-stage watertight system including three O-rings guards the fuse against moisture, and clear, impact-resistant plastic covers protect the Hi-Amp fuse while allowing easy inspection.

Your 4-gauge power cable fastens securely with the built-in set-screws. The Diamond Plate Nickel finish protects against corrosion, while gold-plated contacts ensure optimum conductivity. Warranty: lifetime.

Excellent fuse holder. I had to send the first one back because of a missing o-ring. The dual o-ring design is great for keeping the elements out. The only thing I'm not excited about is the threads, since they are plastic/polycarbonate, you can crossthread them. But if you're careful, there should not be any problems. You will need 2 different hex head keys/allen wrenches to insert the wire and fuse.
