Abstract:
A spark plug wherein least one of a center electrode and a ground electrode includes a shaft portion and an electrode tip joined to one surface of the shaft portion. The shaft portion includes a first core formed of a material containing copper and a first outer layer that is formed of a material having higher corrosion resistance than the first core and covers at least part of the first core. The electrode tip includes a second outer layer that is formed of a material containing a noble metal and forms the outer surface of the electrode tip and a second core that is formed of a material having a higher thermal conductivity than the second outer layer and is at least partially covered with the second outer layer.
