JP-5: Navy Aircraft Fuel at Its Finest

Ikon Midstream proudly supplies JP-5, the gold standard for naval aviation fuel. Known for its exceptional safety profile and mission-critical performance, JP-5 is the preferred fuel for carrier-based aircraft and maritime operations worldwide.

What Makes JP-5 Unique?

JP-5 is a high-flash-point kerosene-based jet fuel specifically formulated for the U.S. Navy and other maritime aviation forces:

• High Flash Point: At 60°C (140°F) minimum, JP-5 significantly reduces fire risk in shipboard environments.
• Wide Operational Envelope: Performs reliably in both high-temperature engine environments and extreme weather conditions.
• Color and Safety Indicators: JP-5 is dyed yellow for identification and fuel system safety.

Engineered for Naval Requirements

Ikon’s JP-5 adheres to MIL-DTL-5624 specifications and includes essential additives that support maritime operations:

• Corrosion Inhibitors: Prevent degradation of fuel tanks and lines in humid, salt-rich environments.
• Anti-Static Additives: Reduces the risk of static discharge during fueling on carriers and naval bases.
• Thermal Stability: Maintains integrity in high-performance turbine engines used in naval aircraft.

“JP-5 was built for the demands of the sea and the sky. Our focus is ensuring every drop meets the highest level of reliability and safety.”
