Volker Klebtechnik Pte. Ltd. Singapore established
in 1994 is subsidiary from Volker Klebtechnik Germany, as distribution
center Volker Iridium spark plugs for Asia Pacific region. Volker
founder Dr. Hans Volker is lecturer, research analyst and powder
metallurgy expert specialized on precious metal development especially
Iridium composite metal. Discovered the most durable Super Iridium
metal as mixtures 99.5% pure Iridium with 0.05% Osmium and Rhodium
as alloying composites which mostly applies for aerospace, military
and automotive industry.
Volker Nano Crystalline Technology Super
iridium
Volker Iridium adopted Volker patented Nano-Crystalline Technology
for processing 99.5% pure Iridium + 0.05% Osmium and Rhodium composites
metal. The metals are processed by sintered at 2400 °C in
Hydrogen environment produce SUPER IRIDIUM alloy which outperformed
normal Iridium it self.
Super Iridium melting point compare with
other metals which mostly uses for spark plugs electrodes:
* Higher Melting point 2466°

Super Iridium had the lowest vaporize rate compare pure
Iridium. The metal known also as high corrosive resistant and
is not attacked by any acid chemical.
Volker YAG laser welding as
standard.
Volker spark plug production facilities equipped with the most
advance YAG laser welding machine to weld both Super Iridium and
Platinum tips. [YAG Laser : Yttrium-Aluminum Garnet laser]
• Super
Iridium tip welded with 6 pointers, 360 laser beams.
• Platinum
tip welded with 40 pointers, 360° laser beam.
Volker Vacuum Sintering Technology.
Volker advance technology, vacuum sintering facility is equipped
to produce high quality ceramic insulator material.
Volker Twin-tip technology.
Volker patented Twin-tip technology spark plugs are combination
of Super Iridium as center electrode and Platinum tipped ground
electrode. Both spark plug electrodes designed in such way to
guide the spark to be more concentrated (focused) and create higher
intensity plasma arc spark. Below illustration is to understand
how the plasma arc spark ignites the air-fuel mixture in high
engine compression and make bigger explosion.
(*) Plasma arc spark: Higher intensity electric energy
discharge across spark gap. Below is the real picture of plasma
arc spark and it’s not computer simulation, showed that
how strong concentrated plasma spark energy guided to across spark
gap.
Significant improvement with Volker Twin-tip technology
spark plug:
• Maintenance
free spark plug and higher service life.
• Up to 37% more horse power and torque output
(please see Technical FAQ page).
• Stable
in high RPM and solid acceleration.
• Improves
top speed.
• Rapid
combustion, prevent mis-fire.
• Improves
cold and morning initial start.
• Cleaner
combustion room (sweep away all unburned fuel residual) improved
engine life time.
• Reduces
exhaust emission
• Reduces
fuel consumption.
• Protect
costly catalytic converter.
• Maintain
longevity secondary ignition parts with 6,000 volt lower energy
consumption.
The above significant benefit from Volker Iridium spark
plug, are not Volker marketing slogan only.
All Volker Iridium spark plugs products are covered with 2 years
/ 160,000 km worldwide limited warranties.
(*) 2 years / 160,000 km warranties are which ever come first.
Volker environment friendly packaging
Volker use environment friendly (recyclable) Polystyrene (PS)
box for all Volker Iridium spark plugs as standard. Each Volker
iridium spark plug is individually packed with PS box. The PS
box is drop tested; shocks proofed and prevent attacks from high
humid which might caused rust problem.
With such improvement on spark plug design and materials
brought Volker to be the one of strongest performance parts vendor.
