. Hardware merchandising March-June 1919. Spark Plugs. To many, a spark plug is just a spark plug. But mechanically, it is amighty interesting and important part of an automobile. While itoperates on the same principle as a lightning rod, it carries its minia-ture strokes of lightning—sometimes thousands a minute—into theengine instead of the earth. Because the terminal nut is per-fectly knurled, or roughened, itmay be tightened with the often cause breakage. This core nut keeps the centre elec-trode tight at the shoulder below,preventing leakage. The littledisc spring here takes up the ex-pansion by heat. The Sterling care is big to defeateasy breakage, by heat or acci-dental shocks. Being large, itpresents an unusually large in-sulating surface inside the ex-plosion chamber. The under side of the core shouldergives a level seat in the shell. Theconical fit of the gland nut furtherprevents leaning. Monel Metal forms the entirelength of the electrode. It is non-corrosive and heat-proof. Sterling shells fit standard sock
