Primrose 410 Hi-Flame Fuel Stabilizer reduces the viscosity of residual fuel oils and has a fluidizing effect at all temperatures, which provides more uniform and faster pumping. Sludge and water emulsions that typically clog fuel strainers, nozzles, preheaters, and lines are dispersed throughout the fuel. This also helps eliminate the environment for bacterial or fungal growth by keeping fuel dry and clean.
Primrose 410 Hi-Flame makes the organic/inorganic deposits in the fuel system and at the burners more friable. It also forms a protective film on internal surfaces of storage tanks and piping, which reduces corrosion and deposit buildup. Stratification in tanks of poorly blended fuels, or polymer-containing waste oils, or contaminated fuels, is prevented by the stabilizing effect of this product. It provides protection against cold-end and stack corrosion.
***410 Hi-Flame has also been shown to be an excellent fuel polishing and tank cleaning additive.***
410 Hi-Flame Fuel Stabilizer is a liquid concentrate that is easy to store and easy to dispense as received. It is completely soluble in all petroleum stocks and is also a superior premium diesel fuel treatment. The sulfur content of this diesel fuel additive does not exceed 15 ppm. This diesel fuel additive complies with the federal low sulfur content requirements for use in diesel motor vehicles and nonroad engines.
410 Hi-Flame will effectively treat No. 2 to No. 6 fuels. Treatment ratios are very economical:
1 gallon of 410 Hi-Flame treats 8,000 gallons of No. 2 fuel.
1 gallon of 410 Hi-Flame treats 2,000 gallons of No. 4 to No. 6 Bunker.
1 gallon of 410 Hi-Flame treats 2,000 gallons of bulk waste oil.
1 quart of 410 Hi-Flame treats 250 gallons of shop waste oil
1 gallon of 410 Hi-Flame treats 1,000 to 2,000 gallons of No. 2 Diesel for fuel polishing and tank cleaning. Higher dosages may be needed for severe bulk tank problems.

Common questions about 410 Hi-Flame Fuel Polishing and Tank Cleaning Stabilizer
-
What is Primrose 410 Hi-Flame used for?
Primrose 410 Hi-Flame is a fuel stabilizer, fuel polishing and tank cleaning additive for diesel, burner fuels such as home heating oil, No. 4 to No. 6 Bunker, and used or waste oils. It disperses the sludge and water emulsions that clog strainers, nozzles and lines, and keeps poorly blended or contaminated fuel from settling into layers in the tank.
-
How much 410 Hi-Flame do I add to my diesel tank?
Add 1 gallon of Primrose 410 Hi-Flame per 8,000 gallons of No. 2 fuel, such as No. 2 diesel. For fuel polishing and tank cleaning, Primrose calls for a stronger dose of 1 gallon per 1,000 to 2,000 gallons of No. 2 diesel, and higher dosages may be needed for severe bulk tank problems.
-
What is the 410 Hi-Flame treat rate for waste oil and No. 6 Bunker fuel?
Primrose 410 Hi-Flame treats No. 4 to No. 6 Bunker fuel and bulk waste oil at 1 gallon per 2,000 gallons. Shop waste oil takes a stronger dose: 1 quart of 410 Hi-Flame per 250 gallons (the same as 1 gallon per 1,000 gallons).
-
Can I use 410 Hi-Flame in a waste oil furnace or home heating oil tank?
Yes, Primrose lists shop waste oil furnaces and home heating fuel oil among the uses for 410 Hi-Flame. The data sheet also lists boiler systems, marine fuel systems, asphalt plants, electric power producers, manufacturers with multi-fuel needs, fuel polishing and tank cleaning.
-
Can 410 Hi-Flame be used in diesel trucks and nonroad equipment?
Yes, 410 Hi-Flame complies with the federal low sulfur content requirements for use in diesel motor vehicles and nonroad engines, according to Primrose. The additive's own sulfur content does not exceed 15 ppm, and the data sheet lists cleaning diesel injectors among its benefits.
