Denso Iridium TT

Denso's revolutionary 'Twin-Tip' technology delivers far less obstruction to the flame's growth, allowing an omni-directional explosion. The unique design incorporates a 0.4-millimeter Iridium centre electrode, and a 0.7-millimeter Platinum ground electrode. This minimizes the quenching effect and results in a more effective, more complete combustion.

Traditional nickel spark plugs feature two flat surfaces, which effectively block the ability for the flame to grow in all different dimensions. But DENSO’s Iridium TT’s two needle-thin electrodes (with the centre electrode 0.2mm smaller than the nearest rival) act as thin 'lighting rods' or 'conductors’, allowing the spark to grow to its full range of 360 degrees in all 3 dimensions.

This improves the ability of the air and fuel mix to ignite and, in-turn, allows the spark to expand quicker, optimising both fuel economy and performance.

DENSO’s cutting-edge technology has created a unique iridium rhodium alloy with the highest iridium ratio in the market for the centre electrode, as well as a bespoke platinum alloy for the ground electrode. This allows an extended lifespan of up to a staggering 75,000 miles!

Features:

  • Smallest and most durable centre electrode tip available today.
  • Reduced Emissions - Improved ignitability leads to less combustion fluctuation, resulting in less fuel consumption & lower emissions.
  • Vastly increased endurance - Lifespan of up to 75000 miles (120,000km).
  • Technologically Advanced - Delivers optimum vehicle performance to a much wider range of OE vehicles at an affordable price.
  • Improved Ignitability - Stronger spark delivers better ignition performance.
  • Special plating provides superior anti-corrosion and anti-seizing properties (do not apply thread lubricant - read installation section below).
  • Ultimate design from the result from years of extensive research and development.
  • Improved Acceleration and Output - Low voltage requirement and high ignitability improves combustion.
  • Manufactured using Denso's most advanced 360-degree laser welding technology.
  • Improves idling stability & throttle response.
  • Spark gap remains virtually unchanged throughout the entire lifetime.
  • Easier engine starts - Great for freezing winter mornings.
  • Superior anti-fouling
  • Outstanding manufacturing quality.
  • Proven track record and used in millions of vehicles around the world.




To provide the best plug in the market, DENSO developed a proprietary 360-degree laser welding process: the result is the highest quality bond that ensures structural support for the Iridium centre electrode, which resists wear and oxidation, even in the harshest combustion environments.

Authenticity

We (Driven 2 Automotive) only supply 100% genuine spark plugs. In fact, we play a major active role in fighting back fakes by producing a series of website blog articles dedicated on showing you how to spot the dodgy ones!

In a bid to help everyone understand the severity of how accurate some copies can be these days, we provide detailed, side-by-side comparison photos of genuine spark plugs placed directly next to counterfeits that we've discovered online, providing help to all those who need it.

Trust genuine, trust us! Simply type 'How to spot fake Denso Iridium Power spark plugs' into a search engine and we'll sure to be near the top of the results.

 



Vehicle Compatibility

  • Please search for 'Denso AM E-Catalogue' on a search engine to verify plug fitment.

  • If there's a compatibility chart added to this listing, use it as a guide only and verify fitment with Denso's e-cat.




Installation

WARNING - DO NOT USE COPPER GREASE (AKA COPPER SLIP, ANTI-SEIZE, THREAD COMPOUND) ON MODERN SPARK PLUG THREADS!

  • Using such lubricants can result in over-torqued values with a torque-wrench by up to 20 percent! Possibly causing major damage.
  • Virtually all modern spark plugs feature a special zinc-chromate shell plating which provides corrosion resistance to the elements.
  • Spark plugs should be torqued/tightened down with a dry thread only.
  • On spark plugs that feature a crush-able base gasket washer, be prepared for tightening to feel odd in the last stages as it's being crushed.
  • Follow the instructions on the box that show you to finger tighten first and then rotate the amount shown afterwards with a wrench.
  • Only use a spark plug gapping tool which pulls on the ground electrodes neck to adjust the gap on precious metal spark plugs.
  • The only time anti-seize compound should be used is on vintage spark plugs that have a non-coated, usually black surface.
