Abstract:
A spark plug capable of generating a sufficient volume of jet with an increased range is provided. The spark plug includes a metal shell having a tubular shape; a center electrode retained in the metal shell in an insulated manner; a ground electrode that is electrically connected to the metal shell and that defines a spark gap between the center electrode and an end portion of the ground electrode; and a cap portion that covers the center electrode and the end portion of the ground electrode from the front in a region in front of the metal shell and in which a through hole is formed. The cap portion includes a plurality of projections on an inner surface of the through hole. The projections extend in an extending direction in which the through hole extends.
