To provide a spark plug in which separation of a tip can be prevented and enough wear resistance can be obtained without increasing the content of nickel in the tip portion, and a use method of the spark plug. In a spark plug (100) including an outside electrode (10) including an electrode body portion (11) and a tip (12) bonded to the electrode body portion (11), and a center electrode (20), and the tip (12) is opposed to the front end portion of the center electrode (20) through a spark discharge gap (G), the electrode body portion (11) is made of a nickel alloy containing 13 to 18% by mass of Cr, 0.03 to 0.08% by mass of C, 1 to 3.5% by mass of Mo, 0 to 0.8% by mass of Si, Al, Mn and Ti, and 68% by mass or more of Ni, and the tip (12) is made of a platinum alloy containing 0 to 4% by mass of Ni.
