Product Data
Castrol® AeroJet 5
High Performance Jet Engine Oil
Synthetic Base, 5 cSt, MIL-PRF-23699, C/I
Description
Castrol ® AeroJet 5 represents a new standard in high performance jet engine
oils designed to exceed the requirements of MIL-PRF-23699F (C/I). Castrol ®
AeroJet 5 is formulated using premium quality polyol esters enhanced with an
optimized additive package providing maximum performance.
Uses
Castrol ® AeroJet 5 is designed for use in turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft
aircraft gas turbine engines, accessory equipment and ground based
aeroderived gas turbines. Castrol® AeroJet 5 offers superior thermal stability,
excellent corrosion protection, improved load carrying capacity, and reduced
deposit forming tendency, when compared to other commercial Type II oils.
Benefits
� Reduced deposit formation in engines
� Extended service use of oil
� Improved corrosion resistance under engine shutdown/storage
Construction Materials
Castrol ® AeroJet 5 is fully compatible with engine and accessory construction
materials, including metals, elastomers and sealing compounds.
Compatibilty/Miscibility
Castrol ® AeroJet 5 is fully compatible and miscible with oils approved to MIL-
PRF-23699F. For this reason, changeover to Castrol ® AeroJet 5 can be
carried out by topping-off. By virtue of the differences in seal swell
characteristics between oils, the engine/accessory manufacturers' approval
should be obtained for any proposed oil change.
Specification
Castrol ® AeroJet 5 is fully qualified to U.S. Military Specification MIL-PRF-
23699 Revision F, C/I (Corrosion Inhibiting) (QUAL:08B and 08B-1).
