Which country is the origin of NGK spark plugs?
2 Answers
NGK spark plugs have established production branches in Beijing, Guangzhou, Jiangsu, and other locations. Below is extended information about these spark plugs: 1. Introduction to NGK spark plugs: In 2003, the first production base in China, Shanghai Special Ceramics Co., Ltd., was established in Shanghai, enabling NGK to directly provide world-class technology and services to major users in China. The ultra-wide range spark plugs feature a copper core embedded in the center electrode up to near the front end to allow rapid heat dissipation, forming a copper-core embedded structure. 2. Achieved ultra-wide range spark plugs resistant to burning and carbon deposits: Using new ceramic high-alumina ceramics as the insulator. It has excellent insulation properties at high temperatures, ensuring reliable spark generation. It features outstanding thermal conductivity, preventing excessive combustion. It has strong resistance to thermal shock (rapid heating and cooling) and high mechanical strength.
I've been driving for over twenty years and have often used NGK spark plugs—they're incredibly reliable. They're made in Japan, with their origin in the Nagoya area. The company's full name is NGK Spark Plug Co., Ltd., established in the 1930s, specializing in ignition systems. I've used them in pickup trucks and commercial vehicles, and the engine starts quickly and smoothly while fuel consumption also decreases. Japanese manufacturing pays attention to detail, using high-quality materials—for example, the electrode design is rust-proof and heat-resistant, lasting longer than ordinary brands. Mechanics often recommend them during maintenance. Now they're sold globally, but core production remains in Japan to ensure authentic quality.
