NGK Spark Plugs

  Spark plugs come with a lengthy & expensive developmental history. With the continuation of numerous pieces of surveys,  Auto spark plug manufacturers  are in the attempt of producing the spark plugs with more durability. They have tested 2,000 electrode and 25,000 insulator materials and their combinations over yesteryears. By doing so, they want to manufacture the best spark plugs ever possible. Components used in the manufacturing process of Spark Plugs Not all spark plugs come in the same design. However, the truth is that they get manufactured by using some following components. Let’s look into the details of these components one by one: The center electrode : It’s connected to the terminal through an internal wire and commonly a ceramic type resistance to reduce emission of Radio Frequency noise from the sparking. The tip can be made of a combination of  copper ,  nickel – iron ,  chromium , or  noble metals  (like plat...

  The spark plug might look like a simple device, but it has a number of highly important jobs. Firstly, it creates an artificial lightning bolt in the combustion chamber of the engine. It transmits extremely high voltage to create sparks to light fires in the combustion chamber. The voltage of the spark plug can go somewhere around 20,000 to over 30,000 voltages. Given below is a brief outline of the eight important parts of the spark plugs that helps the device do its job with the utmost efficiency. 1. Ribs: The ribs offer additional protection against spark flashover. It also helps in improving the grip of the  high-performance spark plugs   against the body of the ignition coil. Aluminum oxide ceramic is used for molding the insulator body. A high-pressure and dry molding system is used for manufacturing this part of the spark plugs. As the insulator gets molded, it gets kiln-fired to the temperature that is more than the melting point of steel. 2. Insulator: ...

  Just like the entire vehicle on the outside as well as inside need proper maintenance for it to function properly, the detailed equipment that plays a crucial role in the functioning of a vehicle needs proper care too. One of which is the spark plugs that ignite every engine to its best! A spark plug can appear to be a small & detailed part of an operation but performs as a hero in the functioning of an engine. A spark plug maintains a sustainable balance of temperature enduring the life of the engine. It also saves the engine from extreme pressure, chemical attacks, power slowdown, etc. Regardless of its size & design, a spark plug can last for a long time it’s properly is taken care of. So here are a few tips to boost the life expectancy of a spark plug. 1.        Install the right style Before the installation, you need to make a wise decision while choosing the correct and the perfect spark plug for your engine. For instance, if you’...
