The insulator has, in an axially central position thereof, a projection part protruding from the outer circumferential surface thereof and extending in a circumferential direction. That main body of the insulator which is located adjacent to the projection part on the rear side thereof, which is the side opposite to the front side facing the center electrode in the axial direction, has a base portion having a cylindrical outer circumference. The outer circumference of the base portion is covered with the glaze layer which, when examined by the method as provided for in JIS B 0601, gives a surface roughness curve having a maximum height Ry of 10 &mgr;m or smaller.

摘要:
In a spark plug (100), the resistor composition constituting a resistor (15) contains semiconductive ceramic particles, offering a superior load life characteristic. Also, the value of (.alpha.2-.alpha.1)/.alpha.1 >=-0.30, where a value of electric resistance between a terminal (13) and a center electrode (3) is .alpha.1 at 20.degree. C. and .alpha.2 at 150.degree. C., so that deterioration of the radio frequency noise prevention performance at high temperatures can be effectively suppressed. The resistor composition contains semiconductive ceramic particles whose temperature coefficient of electric resistance shows a positive value, or a negative value of relatively small absolute value, (e.g., TiO.sub.2 particles having a rutile type crystalline structure, titanate or zirconate of alkali earth metal elements, titanium suboxide, etc.), or titanium metal. Thus, the invention provides a resistor-incorporated spark plug which is enabled to offer a stable load life characteristic even when a high load acts thereon, and which is unlikely to deteriorate in the radio frequency noise prevention performance even under high temperatures.
