Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The NGK Laser Iridium Spark Plug 95660 features an iridium tip on the center electrode, which provides a fine electrode point for precise ignition and longer service life compared to conventional plugs. The copper core center electrode enhances thermal conductivity, helping to dissipate heat efficiently. The ground electrode is constructed with a nickel core and a standard tip design, ensuring stable spark formation. This spark plug includes a non-removable nut type electrical terminal, which offers a secure connection to the ignition system.

With a pre-gap size of 0.030 inches, the spark plug is optimized for reliable ignition timing and combustion efficiency. The flat seat design and 12.00 mm thread diameter with a 26.5 mm reach ensure proper fitment and sealing in compatible engines. The hex size of 14 bi-hex allows for proper torque application during installation. The heat range rating of 8 indicates suitability for engines requiring a colder plug to prevent overheating. Additionally, the 5000 ohm resistance helps minimize radio frequency interference with vehicle electronics.
