I've never tried this, but couldn't you just clip the leads off of a cap
or resistor from your junk box and solder them on to the end caps of a
regular 8a fuse. You would certainly reflow the inside connection but as
long as you still have continuity when your done, no harm no foul. I
wouldn't do this on spacecraft or life support equipment, but the
filaments of a T4XB I think would be OK. If it fails later, it fails
open, so I don't see any risk. Just make sure you use leads that can
handle 8amps. (there probably is a reason for not doing this, but I
can't think of it).

Greetings,
Trying to find a source for the 8 Amp fuse with pig tails that solders
into the filament string on the T4XB. Can find the fuse but not with
pig tails, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
