The IRIDIUM IX range of iridium spark plugs is an efficient alternative to standard nickel spark plugs for the modern car. The use of iridium made it possible to significantly increase the service life compared to traditional nickel spark plugs - the service life of Iridium IX plugs can reach 80 thousand km. The tip of the central electrode is made of iridium alloy and laser welded using a special technology. In addition to the iridium center electrode tip, these spark plugs have a tapered side electrode for improved ignition efficiency. Iridium IX can be used as an alternative to almost any standard spark plug, when selected on the NGK website, in addition to the standard spark plug, a suitable Iridium IX plug will be offered.
Advantages of Iridium IX plugs
-Efficient engine operation and improved throttle response.
-Improved ignition and starting characteristics. The ultra-thin center electrode of the iridium spark plugs ensures efficient ignition even at low temperatures, as well as stable engine idling.
-Fuel economy. Efficient ignition results in less consumption of the air-fuel mixture. And this is both fuel savings and a decrease in the amount of harmful emissions.
