the only problem that I am facing with this kind of fuses is the replacement. even the people who sell irons and others do not provide an extra fuse and most of the time i had to send the machine back to the cutomers..but since I am now in the states, I am trying to buy all the parts needed to use back home. so far, I bought so many things and I canot wait to go home and start doing my repairs again.

It is best to use an adjustable temperature soldering station on a lower temperature to solder in thermal fuses and it is a must to use a clip on heat sink also called a soldering heat sink to clip onto the lead you are soldering, this is a good practice when soldering in any heat sensitive component. This is a clip on heat sink for those who do not know what it is,

You can also use a hemostat/forcep for the same purpose or find another way to improvise a heat sink.

Thanks Jestine, this reminded me several years ago when I tried to fix a microwave oven with a blown fuse. It looks like the one up there with the black bulleted end. I make the mistake of using a big weller soldering gun and the heat from it opened my new fuse. You need to heatsink the leads with hemostats or solder real quick. Thought somebody could use this tip.
