Their <a href="/7570-sierra-engine-gasket-set-5404">engine gasket sets</a> provide critical sealing solutions for inboard and outboard motors, while their <a href="/7570-sierra-engine-complete-assembly-15341">engine complete assemblies</a> offer comprehensive replacement options for major overhauls. Each component undergoes rigorous testing to ensure reliability in demanding marine conditions, from corrosion resistance to temperature cycling performance.</p><h3>Instrumentation and Monitoring Systems</h3><p>Accurate instrumentation is essential for boat operators to monitor engine health and prevent costly breakdowns on the water. Sierra's comprehensive line of <a href="/7570-sierra-gauges-200483">gauges</a> includes everything from fuel pressure and temperature indicators to voltmeters and trim gauges, all designed with marine-grade materials that withstand vibration, moisture, and UV exposure. Their <a href="/7570-sierra-tachometer-gauge-1488">tachometer gauges</a> deliver precise RPM readings critical for optimizing engine performance and fuel efficiency.

This strategic expansion brought established marine brands like Shields and Moeller under the Sierra umbrella, creating a one-stop resource for marine maintenance and replacement parts. The company now offers fuel systems, electrical components, battery charging solutions, and NMEA electronics alongside their traditional engine parts lineup.</p><h3>Quality Backed by Industry-Leading Warranties</h3><p>What sets Sierra apart in the crowded aftermarket marine parts market is their commitment to standing behind every component they manufacture. Their warranty coverage extends beyond simple part replacement—it includes shop labor, haul-out fees, towing charges, and related incidental costs should a warrantied part fail. This comprehensive protection reflects the company's confidence in their manufacturing processes and quality control standards.

Product Details

The Sierra FS79370 is a glass tube MDL fuse designed for marine and automotive electrical system protection. This slow blow fuse features a time-delay element that allows temporary current surges without blowing, making it ideal for motors, transformers, and other inductive loads that draw higher current during startup.

Key Features:

  • MDL-type slow blow time-delay fuse for inductive load protection
  • Standard 1/4" diameter x 1-1/4" length glass tube construction
  • Transparent glass body allows visual inspection of fuse element
  • Nickel-plated brass end caps ensure reliable electrical contact
  • Designed for marine, automotive, and powersports applications
  • Resists nuisance blowing from temporary current spikes

Sierra's glass tube fuses meet industry standards for reliable overcurrent protection. The slow blow characteristic provides circuit protection while tolerating the brief inrush currents common in motor and lighting circuits. Always replace fuses with the same type and amperage rating as specified by the equipment manufacturer.

First time use, I hope your real

Good

First time on site. Finding product was easy order was easy. Not sure how fast shipping is yet but pleased so far.

So far so good.

Able to save $100 on what we needed! And loved the shipping discount it gave me too!

Great!

good so far

Good site everything does what it's supposed to do.

I'm a stickler for finding the best prices on my purchases, while also making sure that the products I buy are legit and not some cheapo knock-offs.<br>I did my homework on the Clutch Stage 2 kit I wanted for my Spec V and found that Autoplicity had the best price anywhere, even a spot where I had 10% off came out to be more expensive.<br><br>I received my Clutch Stage 2 clutch kit pretty quickly (about 1 week) and everything was as expected.<br><br>Overall I would rate Autoplicity a perfect 10, although I did not have to contact their customer service or initiate a return, so the '10' would be on product selection, communication, website experience, and overall feeling that I got the best deal out there.<br><br>Thanks!
