Abstract
In a glow plug igniter of the type used in internal combustion engines, having a hollow cylindrical casing and a central pin-terminal, a substantially flat-spiral-coiled, flexible resistance element, oriented perpendicularly to said pin-terminal with one end electrically connected to the casing and the other to the pin-terminal, is positioned at a nose end of the casing and spaced from but close to a backing seal of temperature and corrosion-resistant material. At least one seal hermetically closes the hollow casing. Preferably, spaced glass seals constitute the sole means for mounting the pin in the body.
