Bosch 96318 OE Fine Wire Double Iridium Spark Plug

The Bosch 96318 is an OE Fine Wire Double Iridium Spark Plug featuring both an iridium firing pin and an iridium ground electrode inlay that offer higher performance and 4X longer life compared to standard copper spark plugs. This advanced spark plug utilizes a 0.6 mm fine wire firing pin for better ignitability and durability, making it an ideal replacement for modern gasoline engines including Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) applications.

Key Features:

• 360-degree laser welded ultra-fine wire iridium firing pin provides better ignitability - reducing voltage requirements up to 24%
• Copper core helps prevent pre-ignition and fouling
• Nickel-plated rolled threads provide superior resistance to corrosion and do not require anti-seize
• Pre-gapped at the factory and ready to install right out of the box
• Ribbed insulator prevents flashover

Technical Specifications:

• Thread diameter: 12mm with 1.25mm pitch
• Reach: 26.5mm (1.04 inches)
• Hex size: 9/16 inch (14mm)
• Gap: 0.024 inch (0.6mm)
• Seat type: Gasket
• Single ground electrode with iridium inlay

The OE-matched spark position ensures compatibility with Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) technology used in modern gas engines. This spark plug meets or exceeds manufacturer design requirements for OE fit, form, and function, delivering reliable performance and extended service life.
