JP-5 Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

JP-5 is a high-flash-point aviation fuel used primarily in military jet engines and naval aircraft. It is a high-quality kerosene-based fuel that provides efficient combustion and high energy output. JP-5 is formulated to meet stringent military standards, ensuring reliable performance in various weather conditions and flight altitudes. Its high flash point reduces the risk of ignition and fire hazards, making it suitable for use on aircraft carriers and in naval operations. Despite its efficiency, JP-5 poses significant safety and environmental risks due to its flammability and potential for spills. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures are essential to minimize risks.
