Because we’re an expert coil manufacturer, you know
what to expect every time you open our box.
Not every supplier can say the same.

 

Ignition coils are manufactured at SMP Poland, an IATF 16949-certified design, engineering, and manufacturing center. We produce over 6 million coils and release 110+ new products each year.

Superior Coil Engineering

Superior Coil Engineering

Many suppliers are just product importers. That’s not who we are. It’s not enough to lead the market with 99% coverage, as an expert manufacturer, here’s our process. We study the OE platform coils to identify weak points in original coil designs that lead to failure, then we engineer improvements to produce a more reliable coil.

Ignition Coil Testing

Our ignition coils undergo a full regimen of measurement and life tests, plus environmental analysis that includes thermal shocks, thermal cycling and vibration tests. You can install Standard®,  Blue Streak®, and Intermotor® ignition coils with confidence, knowing they meet and often exceed the performance and durability of the original.

Ignition Coil Testing

Blue Streak® Outperforms the OE

Testing Takeaways

Test 1: Blue Streak® coils outperform the OE and OE aftermarket coils with more spark energy and longer lasting discharge to deliver improved performance and fuel economy.

Test 2: The OE coils short-circuited and never completed Stage 1.
Blue Streak® coils passed 100 thermal cycles, a 24-hour life test, and 10 thermal shocks, producing more energy and higher secondary voltage for exceptional performance and durability.

  • heavydutycoil-1png

    Advanced thermoplastic coil connector ensures proper connection and resists fractures caused by heat and thermal cycling

  • heavydutycoil-2png

    Primary (23 gauge) and Secondary (43 gauge) copper wire ensure high-voltage availability for peak performance while reinforced bobbins prevent voltage flashover for extended service life

  • heavydutycoil-3png

    High-impact housing material ensures superior bond to epoxy for longer life in all operating conditions

  • heavydutycoil-4png

    Internal, neodymium permanent magnet core surrounded by grain-oriented, magnetic-laminated steel maximizes high-voltage output at all engine RPMs and loads

  • heavydutycoil-5png

    Tested at extreme engine performance condition at 7200 RPM

  • heavydutycoil-6png

    Engineered and tested to match or exceed OE for spark energy output, impedance, and durability

  • heavydutycoil-7png

    High-temp boot prevents high-voltage leaks, while stainless-steel spring with internal ferrite noise suppressor prevents radio frequency interference (RFI)

  • heavydutycoil-8png

    Isolator manufactured using high voltage-resistant thermoplastics to prevent premature coil failure

  • heavydutycoil-9png

    Copper wires using higher insulation grade ensure heat resistance and prevent high voltage breakdown

  • heavydutycoil-10png

    Optimum wire distribution developed by extensive testing ensures superior functional parameters and durability

  • blue-streak-vs-oeweb1png

    OE: 8 primary winding sections.

    Blue Streak: With 10 primary winding sections, our design reduces the height of each section’s winding to decrease the risk of breakage between sections.

  • blue-streak-vs-oeweb2png

    OE: Uneven number of winding turns.

    Blue Streak: Our barrel winding distribution precisely reduces the number of turns in the first and last two sections to reduce the voltage gradient. When combined with our higher G2 insulation grade, our winding distribution lowers the risk of breakage within the winding.

  • blue-streak-vs-oeweb3png

    OE: Potted using “yellow” epoxy system.

    Blue Streak: When compared to common “amber/yellow” epoxy systems, our “black” epoxy system features nearly 40% higher insulation resistance to voltage breakdown.

Intermotor® – Advanced Pencil Coil Technology

As engine technology evolves, coil-on-plug technology will continue to play an increasingly important role. Standard® and Intermotor® premium pencil coils are leading the way with exceptional coverage for this growing category. Let’s take a closer look at our UF242 pencil coil:
