ABSTRACT:
A glow plug has a heater member form by depositing a continuous metallic-silicide layer on the internal and external surfaces of a hollow open-ended cylindrical ceramic substrate. The metallic-silicide layer on the external surface of the substrate is electrically connected to a metal shell which supports one end of the heater member. An axial electrode disposed in the shell is electrically connected to the metallic-silicide layer disposed on the internal surface of the substrate and further serves together with a shoulder on the heater member to lock the heater member in the shell. The metallic-silicide resistive layer has a positive temperature coefficient of resistance and is substantially uneffected by micro-irregularities on the substrate surfaces to provide a cold resistance of from 0.2 to 0.6 ohms and is capable of responding to five amperes of current to develop a temperature of at least 800.degree. C. within five seconds.
