The fusion excitation function for {sup 36}S+{sup 48}Ca with positive Q-value for the compound nucleus formation, has been measured from near the barrier down to very low energies, where ''fusion hindrance'' may be expected. No evidence of hindrance shows up in the measured energy range. Coupled-channels calculations have been performed with a large diffuseness parameter of the Woods-Saxon potential, reproducing the data above and below the barrier.
