Aerospace Precision Metals

Age-hardenable and high strength stainless steels gain favor from designers of aerospace, military, and other industries. 

Designers of industries like aerospace and military rapidly gain favors along with these specialized materials which are challenged to meet higher expectations in performance and rigid quality requirements.

These specialized alloys are upgraded conventional stainless steels. Conventional stainless steel, though provides the required corrosion resistance for various demanding applications, these steels are still lack of the combined high strength, fabricability, toughness, and damage tolerance.

An alloy is considered as a high strength stainless steel that can meet several vital requirements. To be highly qualified as a high strength stainless steel, various characteristics are required like ultimate tensile ductility, tensile strength, and yield strength. An alloy must also have general corrosion resistance similar to 304 type of stainless steel and with excellent stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance.

Benefits of Using Aerospace Metals

Aerospace precision metals are used in the aerospace industry for aircraft, satellites, space vehicles, and rockets. They are also used in the defense industry for military weapons. These metals have high precision levels and are required to meet aerospace manufacturing standards. They are also lightweight and corrosion-resistant.

In recent years, the demand for aerospace metals has increased due to increased production of new aircraft, satellite launches, and more defense spending. Aerospace precision metals are used in a wide range of applications from aerospace to automotive, industrial and electrical. These metals are used for their unique properties – such as extreme hardness and high-temperature resistance.

Aerospace metals are used in the manufacturing of aircraft, missiles, and satellites. These metals are also used in the production of semiconductors, computers, and mobile phones. Not only that, aerospace precision metals have a wide range of applications, with some being more prevalent than others.

There is a demand for aerospace metals as they are always needed for research and development purposes. However, not all aerospace metal suppliers are reliable as they may not provide timely deliveries or may even be counterfeit.

Aerospace precision metals are mainly made of titanium, aluminum, and nickel. These metals can be produced in a variety of shapes and sizes. They also have superior corrosion resistance compared to other metals.

We also have the capability to provide forgings, powder metal parts, extruded shapes, machined components, castings, near-net-shape bars, and fastener stock for the different machining operations for Aerospace Metals for commercial and military aircraft and jet engines. This is how we lead globally in the advanced and technical development of aerospace materials.
