Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0518707A2] In a spark plug which has a center electrode disposed in a metallic shell through an insulator so that a front end of the center electrode forms a spark gap with an outer electrode extended from the metallic shell, the outer electrode has a heat-conductive core metal cladded by a matrix metal which is made from nickel-based alloy containing 10 SIMILAR 20 wt% chronium. A platinum tip is welded to the outer electrode so that a spaced distance between a circumferential edge of the welded portion and a front end of the core metal falls within a range from 0.0 mm to 2.0 mm. <IMAGE>
