Still use them around here but they are getting harder to find when you need to replace one

Most of the old farm houses still have those fuses, unless they rewired the house in the last fifty or sixty years. Lived in a couple places that still had them after I got married in 68. You kids just ain't been around! grin

We built a hog confinement barn in 1977. The ventilation fans used 6 1/4 amp fuses like that. When we quit feeding hogs in the mid 90s they were getting real hard to find.

Still very common. That's what was used before circuit breakers.

Someone will be buying them as they need them. Too many stores don’t carry them anymore.

Lowes carries them in the electrical department they just won't have the copper springs on the bottom. Someone I see on here works at lowes I think.

The old house I grew up in uses them still.

Those type S fuses are time delay fuses ..
Meant to run motor loads , where amperage would increase on start up ...
They would hold just a bit longer than a regular plug fuse ...

In some cases fuses offered better protection than modern circuit breakers

I would have thought they would still be in confinement or at least come running when it was feeding time
