Would anyone have any knowledge of the (sub?)-miniature cartridge fuses fitted inside voltage selector plugs used in some old British gear of the 1960's. Currently restoring my Rogers Cadet Mk.II ECL86 stereo amp, which has a 1 amp fuse. Much web searching has proved fruitless, except for noting these 'fused plugs' were also used in some Vox gear of the same period. The fuse measures 1/4 x 1/2".

I would use a soldering iron and solder sucker to remove the old fuse wire and then solder in a new piece of 1 Amp fuse wire into the old glass cartridge

Thanks. The fuse is still good, I should have said. Would not mind a spare or two just in case. Just interested if they had a ‘type number’ or such and if they were around for long (I suspect not).

Wonder if they are the same size as they used to use on the british mains plugs? think they were longer but if not could be a source for you.

British fused mains plug fuses are longer.
