iridium

Champion®pioneered the use of iridium in aviation and industrial applications nearly 30 years ago. Now iridium, which has a stabilizing effect on ignition voltage and excellent wear characteristics, is quickly becoming the technology of choice for engine manufacturers worldwide. 

Improved performance and service life

• Iridium pin welded to the copper core centre electrode
  
• Platinum pad welded to the copper core ground
  

• Champion®Iridium center electrode and “laser-locked” platinum ground electrodes ensure maximum life
  
• Champion®’s fine-wire electrode and platinum v-trimmed ground electrode produce the sharpest spark focus
  
• Further reduces erosion maintaining the gap & increases life
