Component Identification

Hi All,
I am repairing a circuit board. I have gone thru most of it and replaced several components like diodes and capacitors to update it but now I am stumped. I have a component that looks like a diode but the symbol on it looks like it might be a transistor. I have never seen a symbol like this. It's the last thing I need to replace to get my board active again. It steps down or regulates 120v. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I really didn't think about it being a fuse or fuseable link. The symbol is really throwing me off. It is a new symbol to me. I might try a fuse and see if it comes alive.
Thanks

The 'symbol' isn't any such thing, it's just a manufacturers logo - but it's clearly marked 160mA, so it couldn't be much else than a fuse.

However, I've never seen a fuse like it - and while I've seen LOT'S of different types, there's always something obscure comes along that you've never seen before.

What actually is the circuit board?.
