Champion RJ6C Copper Plus Marine Spark Plug, OEM 502196 Equivalent

The Champion RJ6C Copper Plus Marine Spark Plug is a copper-core spark plug engineered for dependable marine engine performance. Known as Champion Spark Plug # 102, it uses a copper core center electrode that allows accurate control of the heat range, supporting good overall wear and a longer service life even under the heavy, sustained loads typical of marine engines. The shell is finished with Champion's patented TinTac and ULTRASEAL coating for maximum corrosion resistance, an important feature for plugs that operate in humid, saltwater-adjacent environments. A patented SAC-9 semiconductor is built into the plug for maximum EMI and RFI suppression, helping reduce electrical interference with onboard electronics and marine radios. The RJ6C is built to ISO and SAE standards, giving it a proven, standardized performance baseline.

This plug is a Copper Plus design, meaning it is intended as a dependable, cost-effective replacement rather than a long-life precious-metal plug, and it carries the Champion brand's OEM-quality positioning for marine outboard and inboard engines. It is offered as a single spark plug (carton of 1). The RJ6C is also a stated OEM equivalent for Bombardier part number 502196, making it a straightforward replacement for engines originally specified with that number.
