Key Benefits of Aluminum Forgings for Aerospace

  •  High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Aluminum forgings provide excellent mechanical and electrical strength while significantly reducing structural weight – critical to increasing the payload capacity and fuel efficiency of aircraft and spacecraft.

  • Excellent Corrosion and Heat Resistance

Aerospace-grade aluminum alloys can withstand extreme temperatures and oxidation, making them ideal for turbine disks, engine mounts, and parts subject to high thermal loads.

  •  Improved Flight Performance and Safety

Forged aluminum parts help improve structural stability and reliability, enhancing the overall safety of aircraft at high altitudes and speeds.

  •  Precision and Design Flexibility

Closed-die forging allows for extremely high dimensional accuracy and near-net shape, minimizing machining time and material waste.

Typical Aerospace Applications

Fuselage structural components

Aircraft wings and spars

Jet engine turbine disks

Landing gear brackets

Spacecraft window structures (e.g., using aluminum oxynitride)

Rocket components and computer structures for satellite television

Materials used

We offer a wide range of aerospace-grade aluminum alloys, including:

Alloy Code Description Application Highlights

TC11 High-strength titanium aluminum alloy Jet engine components, high-temperature areas

TC4 Ti-6Al-4V, excellent strength and ductility Fuselage joints, load-bearing components

Note: TC11 and TC4 are often paired with aluminum matrix composites and forgings for hybrid aerospace systems to provide structural reinforcement and weight reduction.
