Abstract (en)

[origin: DE3941649A1] The invention relates to a process for making a long-lasting, sturdy sparking plug for internal combustion engines. The sparking plug electrode (16) of the invention consists of several components: one for a corrosion resistant casing (31'), one for a highly heat-conductive core (33') and one for a burning resistant region (32'). These components are extruded together to produce an electrode blank which is shaped to form the central electrode (16) by machining its head (51) and its region on the combustion chamber side. Particularly heavily loaded electrodes are given a fourth component to be extruded with the others, consisting of highly burning resistant material and arranged in front of the burning resistant region (32') on the combustion chamber side. The electrode (16) is usable as the central electrode (16) and possibly also as an earth electrode after undergoing a stamping and bending process.
