Description

Flashpoint – Available on Subscription!

Flashpoint by Pittsburgh Power is now offered as a standalone subscription item and can also be added to existing subscriptions for added convenience.

Looking for the best cetane-based additive to enhance your truck’s performance? Flashpoint is designed to protect critical fuel system components while boosting power and fuel economy. It also emulsifies water to prevent fuel system failure, increases cetane levels by up to 7 points, enhances lubricity, improves cold flow, and cleans your fuel system.

For ultimate engine performance and emissions system protection, pair Flashpoint with Max Mileage – Fuel Borne Catalyst.


Flashpoint – Key Benefits

Increases Cetane for Optimal Performance

  • Cetane is a key component of diesel fuel, impacting ignition quality.

  • U.S. diesel fuel typically has a cetane number of 40-45, whereas diesel engines run best between 47-52.

  • Flashpoint raises the cetane number by up to 7 points, optimizing fuel for peak engine performance.

Disperses Water & Protects Against Fuel System Failure

  • Diesel fuel naturally attracts and retains water, leading to:
    ✔ Corrosion & increased wear
    ✔ Reduced lubricity
    ✔ Ice crystal formation in cold weather
    ✔ Microbial slime growth

  • Flashpoint emulsifies water, allowing it to pass harmlessly through the system and vaporize as steam.

Water Removal Methods:
  • Emulsification (Flashpoint's method): Bonds water to the fuel in micro- or nanoscale droplets, preventing damage and allowing safe combustion.

  • Demulsification (for storage tanks): Separates water from fuel for mechanical removal via filters or tank drainage.

Inhibits Corrosion

  • By dispersing water, Flashpoint prevents rust and corrosion inside fuel tanks and engine components.

Improves Fuel Economy & Power

  • The cetane boost and other fuel-enhancing additives improve combustion efficiency, resulting in better fuel mileage and increased power.

Increases Lubricity

  • Contains advanced lubricity agents that protect fuel system components, extending their lifespan and improving engine efficiency.


How is Max Mileage Different?

While Flashpoint is a powerful fuel additive, Max Mileage Fuel Borne Catalyst (FBC) is a combustion catalyst—designed to significantly enhance fuel combustibility, something no standard additive can do.

Max Mileage – Key Advantages

Reduces soot emissions by over 60% – No other additive achieves such a dramatic reduction.
Lowers soot burn-off temperature by 250°F, improving emission system efficiency.
Decreases DPF regenerations, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Reduces DEF consumption, saving money on emissions-related expenses.
Extends the lifespan of emission system components and increases maintenance intervals.
Extends overall engine life by minimizing internal wear from soot accumulation.
Keeps fuel tanks free of algae, preventing microbial growth and contamination.
Best-in-class fuel injector cleaner – Removes coking deposits and prevents new buildup.

EPA & CARB Certified

Max Mileage is formulated using Better Diesel FBC, which is EPA-registered and CARB-certified, ensuring compliance with environmental standards.


Get the Best of Both Worlds

For maximum performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control, use Flashpoint and Max Mileage together.
