KLG Plug Temperatures.

Oct 28, 2006 4 Replies

Can anyone relate the old KLG brown (mica?) towered plugs with brass terminals, types G1, H1 & K1, to any other plugs of equivalent temperature ranges?



Also, any idea as to when they were produced?



Thanks in advance, Dave Carter.



Champion No.7? Mid to late 20s ?

Still listed in the 1956 UK Champion catalogue...

Warsop used them in their rock drills, still being supplied in the 1960's. Ceramic insulators wouldn't last five minutes in the engines.

Can't find a heat range reference for them.

Thank you, Oily and Peter.

All I have to go on is the shape and positions of the insulation and electrodes. The three electrodes on the K1 are very similar to a Lodge C3 I have been using, and that is a hot plug. So I presume the others are relatively cooler.

Regards, Dave Carter.
