Fuel anti-gel additives prevent diesel fuel from gelling in cold temperatures by lowering the pour point and improving flow. These additives work by disrupting wax crystal formation, ensuring smooth fuel system operation. They are essential for maintaining fuel efficiency and preventing engine damage during winter months.

Key specifications and technical properties of Fuel Anti-Gel Additives and Fuel Systems:

Size: Typically available in 8 oz to 1-gallon containers for additives; fuel system components vary by vehicle.

Grade: Meets ASTM D975 (diesel), ASTM D4814 (gasoline), or other relevant standards.

Viscosity: Additives range from 5-50 cSt; fuel system components depend on application.

Buoyancy: Not applicable for additives; fuel system materials may have specific buoyancy properties.

Material: Additives contain polymers, surfactants, and solvents; fuel systems use metals (aluminum, steel) or plastics (HDPE, nylon).

Operating Temperature: -40°F to 300°F (-40°C to 150°C) for additives; fuel systems vary by design.

Compatibility: Suitable for diesel, biodiesel, or gasoline, depending on formulation.

Dosage: Typically 1 oz per 10 gallons of fuel for anti-gel additives.

Flash Point: >100°F (>38°C) for most additives.

Storage: Stable under normal conditions; avoid extreme heat or cold.
