Detailed Description

Spark Plug; Iridium;

Autolite Iridium XP spark plugs are engineered with an iridium-enhanced fine-wire and a proprietary, platinum ground electrode, to increase durability*, while its tapered ground wire maximizes engine efficiency, delivering improved engine performance, fuel efficiency, acceleration, and ignitability

  • Engineered with an Iridium-enhanced center electrode and fine-wire design that increases ignitability and provides a more focused ignition for improved engine performance
  • Its proprietary platinum ground electrode provides increased durability* and resistance to wear, extending the life of the plug
  • The tapered ground wire improves engine ignitability
  • Its high alumina multi-rib ceramic insulator provides thermal conductivity and superior insulation for increased strength while preventing flash-over
  • Designed with a nickel-plated shell that is corrosion resistant to provide increased durability for extended periods
  • Includes a lifetime limited warranty that guarantees optimum performance equal to OE designed plugs

With an iridium-enhanced .6 mm finewire design and patented platinum sidewire technology, this plug provides the durability advantages of a double platinum spark plug with virtually no gap erosion, longer life, and top fuel efficiency over the life of the plug. The Iridium XP spark plug also provides more focused ignition for better ignitability performance.

Brand Information

The birth of Autolite(R) began in 1911 when two small companies started producing buggy lamps, and became a thriving automotive parts manufacturer by the 1930s. But its history as a spark plug manufacturer began in 1935 when Royce G. Martin, President of the Electric Autolite Company, equipped and staffed a lab to develop the first Autolite spark plug. Leading the project was Robert Twells, a ceramic engineer, who eagerly researched current patents and ceramic insulator technology. With a handful of new draftsman and staff members, it only took a few months before the Electric Autolite Company had a spark plug available for distribution. Autolite had instant success, as the brand supplied spark plugs and other ignition parts to well-known automotive leaders including Chrysler, Studebaker, Packard and Willys.

Since its inception, the Autolite(R) brand has provided the automotive aftermarket and Original Equipment manufacturers the highest quality ignition products. We have been in operation for over 100 years and have produced more than 11 billion spark plugs and glow plugs. Our plugs are specifically designed for each application to meet or exceed OE quality and performance. Autolite makes plugs for American, Japanese, European and Korean cars as well as plugs for Lawn & Garden and Power Sports. Whether it's the top of the line Iridium XP Enhanced Alloy Technology(TM) spark plug, the Double Platinum Finewire with platinum-to-platinum firing or any of the other great products in our line, we will keep your car running at optimum levels.
