●
Uses the world's first and the world's
smallest ultra-fine 0.4-mm diameter
iridium tip for the center electrode. This
lowers the required voltage and greatly
improves ignitability.
●
The inside of the ground electrode
has a U-shaped groove to secure the
large space required for flame core
formation. This provides superior
ignition performance with low spark
voltage without enlarging the plug gap.
●
The ground electrode tip is cut to a
shape with a tapered tip. This reduces
the quenching effect and greatly
improves ignitability.

●
The finer the electrodes, the more
the potential concent-rates at the
electrode tip and the stronger the
electrical field, so the lower the
required voltage. Therefore, reliable
combusion is obtained over a wide
range and engine starting and
acceleration are improved.
