Abstract (en)

To ensure oxidation resistance of a glow plug in a high temperature environment and simultaneously prevent a short circuit between a tube and a heat-generating coil in the high temperature environment. The glow plug includes: a tube having a closed forward end; a heat-generating coil that is disposed inside the tube, has a forward end electrically connected to the forward end of the tube, and generates heat when energized; and an insulating material that contains MgO as a main component and fills the space between the inner surface of the tube and the heat-generating coil. The tube is formed of an alloy containing Ni in an amount of 50% by weight or more, Cr in an amount of 18% by weight to 30% by weight, Al, and at least one component selected from Y and Zr. The amount of Al is 1% by weight or less, and the total amount of the at least one component selected from Y and Zr is 0.01% by weight to 0.3% by weight.
