Glow Plug
Glow Plug
We offer aftermarket glow plugs for Cat diesel engines to help them start. Because the mass of the cylinder block and the cylinder head absorbs the heat, high-speed diesel engines can be difficult to start in cold weather.

These plugs are essential for smooth starts, especially in cold weather. Diesel engines, with their heavy cylinder block and head, absorb a lot of heat, presenting a challenge during cold starts, particularly in high-speed engines. The efficiency of starting relies on the components effectively retaining and using heat. In cold conditions, the engine’s sluggishness becomes apparent, making starting a demanding task. Our aftermarket plugs address this by ensuring the engine gets the required heat to ignite the fuel-air mixture promptly.
