Abstract: An apparatus for producing a glass-coated wire, the apparatus comprising at least one heating device adapted to, independently, heat a core material to a melting temperature thereof and heat a glass material to a drawing temperature thereof.
Abstract: In a spark plug in which a space between a center electrode at the top end side and a terminal electrode at a rear end side which are arranged to be opposite to each other in an axial hole of an insulator, the glass seal is effected at a temperature within the range of 500 to 1000° C. and under a condition where the concentration of oxygen is 4-12 vol %.
