The fuel for civil aviation jet engines is aviation kerosene. In the fuel systems of aircraft and aircraft engines, they perform a number of functions, one of the main ones being the lubricating function. The lubricity of fuels depends on many factors, including the technologies for their production, which are constantly changing. The lubricity of Russian fuels for civil aviation is not standardized and not controlled. A comparative assessment of the lubricity of fuel brands used in civil aviation on a four-ball friction machine is shown in the article. The introducing an indicator characterizing the lubricity of fuels into the Russian standard for jet fuels relevance is justified.
