GLOW PLUGS

Glow Plugs are critical to the smooth, efficient starting of diesel engines, including cars, vans, light commercial vehicles and off highway equipment. High quality performance is vital in achieving the required starting temperatures readily, without compromising on the plug's durability. The extensive range includes Dual Coil, Long Post Heat, single and wire type glow plugs that ensure more effective combustion and improved emissions, resulting in smoother cold engine running.

Purpose
When cold diesel engine may not create the heat needed for combustion, this auxiliary starting device (Glow Plugs) is needed.

Operation
Whether manually or automatically activated, the glow plug heats the surrounding air within which fuel can combust during cold start conditions. In automotive diesel application, the glow plugs project into a pre-chamber where the nozzle injects the diesel fuel.
