Hi.
Looking for a thermostat for a Pelonis Oil filled Radiator 1500 watts.
It has 2 prongs and 2 mounting screws. Thanks
Welcome to the forum.
What temperature?
Temperature might be printed on the thermostat housing.
Also what are the dimensions of the part? It looks like TO-3

Hello laurence,
Please be very careful.
As I understand this product, this is NOT a thermostat. It is a thermal safety fuse. Think of this as the backup to prevent excessive temperature (burning the house down) in case the main thermostat fails.
Please see @PaulHutch note and let us know the part number. With this we may be able to find a suitable replacement.
Best Wishes,

It’s KSD 301
16 A
125 V
130°F
The form factor is consistent with a common flavor of bimetallic thermostats. Markings suggest a 130°C switch point, 16A rating @ 125VAC. CS713025Z seems like a reasonable replacement.

Thank you Rick.
Does the 130 indicate Celsius or Fahrenheit?
Hi @laurence.langley ,
Per rick_1976 product link, attributes of the part show 266°F (130°C).
