Description
Product Overview
Aluminum forgings are the cornerstone of new aerospace engineering, combining unparalleled strength, lightweight performance and resistance to harsh environments. Our forging facilities specialize in producing high-performance aerospace aluminum forgings to meet the typical needs of aircraft and spacecraft manufacturers around the world.
From aircraft fuselages and wing structures to high-pressure engine turbine disks and the most sophisticated aerospace components, aluminum alloy forgings provide the structural integrity and general performance reliability required of aerospace structures.
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
