Hager do them but only up to 30A, Memshield 2 did them up to 45A but the 40 and 45A carriers took up two ways in the board.
Search the forum,
Do you know if anyone does them at 63A for a TPN DB?

In my case it was for a DIN rail box for misc control stuff, so I have not checked if the terminals match any corresponding MCB for a board. You would like to think the Schneider would have the sense to standardize on incoming terminal spec across the whole range, but I have long since given up expecting sense!
BS88 fuses are still used extensively in most of our motor control centers. Easier to change a fuse than a faulty MCCB!
This avert-video is quite good at showing the impact of this sort of aspect. OK they are looking at 25kA fault currents which is a touch above the domestic or light industry case, but it still illustrates it well:

The issue I think is having them the width for the busbars, etc. For single slot MCB sizes I have only ever seen 32A.
Here is an example larger one with indicators:

Very much doubt you will find one up to 63A as even the old Memshield 2 45A took up two ways. Schneider do them in one, two and three poles but only up to 32A.

Just looking at these do they actually fit into a dist board.The issue I think is having them the width for the busbars, etc. For single slot MCB sizes I have only ever seen 32A.

It seems the forum have jumped on it.....advertising Eaton Bussmann IEC cylindrical fuses.
There seem more adverts than posts at present.
Regarding BS88's, they are ideal for feeding sub boards. Breakers feeding breakers is such a common occurrence these days but unavoidable in so many situations.

Also much lower fault let-through energy so other stuff tends to survive.
