I think there is still a fair bit of metal inside those sleeves! After all, it is only 2.5mm² wires feeding the socket in the first place if it's a spur!
More likely to be the fuse clips and the fuse itself plus the springy contacts that grip the pins inside the socket aren't particularly beefy. I wonder how they compare with the 16A sockets used on the continent?
