This document is not anASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of anASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.

Unleaded Aviation Gasoline
This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6227; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope*
1.1 This specification covers Grades UL82 and UL87 unleaded aviation gasolines, which isare defined by this specification as
and are only for use only in engines and associated aircraft that are specifically approved by the engine and aircraft manufacturers,
and certified by the National CertifyingAgencies to use this fuel. This fuel is not considered suitable for use in other engines and
associated aircraft that are certified to use aviation gasolines meeting Specification D910. these fuels. Components containing
hetro-atoms (oxygenates) may be present within the limits specified.
1.2 Afuel may be certified to meet this specification by a producer as Grade UL82 or UL87 aviation gasoline only if blended
from component(s) approved for use in Grade 82 ULthese grades of aviation gasoline by the refiner(s) of such components,
because only the refiner(s) can attest to the component source and processing, absence of contamination, and the additives used
and their concentrations. Consequently, re-classifying of any other product to Grade UL82 or Grade UL87 aviation gasoline does
not meet this specification.
1.3 Appendix X1 contains an explanation for the rationale of the specification. Appendix X2 details the reasons for the
individual specification requirements.
