Aerospace component materials

Material

Application

Aluminum

Aluminum has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio of this metal. It is a great option for the high loading requirements of aircraft brackets and housings. Aluminum also boasts good ductility, stiffness, corrosion resistance, and machinability. Its lightweight properties make it useful for aerospace structural applications like fuselage skin, wing stringers, wing skins, etc.

Titanium

Titanium has a number of material properties that make it the ideal metal for demanding applications. These properties include excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals and extreme temperatures. The metal also has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. 

These properties make titanium alloys great options for airframes and aircraft engines. 

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is the low carbon steel that offers many properties that are sought after for industrial applications. Stainless steel typically contains a minimum of 10% chromium by weight.

They are top options for engine and exhaust parts, landing gear components, and critical joints in aircraft superstructures, ensuring high performance and durability. 

Carbon Fiber

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers are extensively used in the aerospace industry due to their high specific strength and stiffness. They also boast increased fatigue and corrosion resistance, making them useful for structural components like wing box, fuselage, and control surfaces.

Liquid Silicone Rubber

Our liquid silicon materials are great choices for thermal stability and flexibility. They thrive in extreme environments of the aerospace industry to ensure oil and fuel resistance.

PowderCoating

Powder coating is a coating that is applied as a free-flowing dry powder. Unlike traditional liquid coatings, which are delivered by evaporating solvents, powder coatings are typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or UV light.

Polish

Polishing is the process of creating a smooth and shiny surface through physical friction or chemical interference of parts. The process produces surfaces with significant specular reflection, but can reduce diffuse reflection in some materials.
