A miniature fuse suitable for printed circuit applications and a manufacturing method therefor features preferably a generally rectangular elongated insulating body having a fuse element preferably diagonally disposed in a fuse cavity therein and terminals preferably insert molded therein and extending preferably from the opposite ends thereof. The cavity preferably opens onto opposite longitudinal sides of the body, but provision may be made to optionally close-off one of the cavity openings by a cover plate. The body is sealed by a sleeve which is preferably a semi-rigid expandable member but which could be a piece of expandable shrink tubing. Lay-in grooves preferably extend from the opposite ends of the cavity to conductive fuse attachment surfaces which are initially preferably bendable tabs located beyond the outer surface of the body to allow the fuse element to be conveniently attached or captured thereby during fuse assembly. The projecting tabs are then bent into the fuse body, and a preferably semi-rigid transparent insulating sleeve is then applied around and sealed to the sides of the body.
