The aerospace industry depends on the usage of lightweight materials to increase fuel efficiency. Since fasteners make up a significant volume of aircraft models, the need for lightweight fasteners is highly important. In the current scenario, the high demand for titanium fasteners among aircraft OEMs, aircraft component OEMs, and maintenance service providers is catalyzing the aerospace titanium fasteners market. The military aerospace sector is the major adopter of aerospace fasteners in the aerospace industry, followed by commercial aerospace and general aerospace. The increasing adoption of titanium fasteners in military aircraft due to its various benefits, such as high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and nonmagnetic nature, is driving the market growth. Titanium's robust strength and low density provide the high levels of performance desired by aeroengine manufacturers. Its high-temperature capability is suitable for jet engines and airframe parts that must endure temperatures ranging from subzero to 600°C. Further, military helicopters and UAVs are also demanding higher volumes of titanium fasteners for improved operational efficiency and fuel reduction benefits. Thus, the above-mentioned factors are driving the aerospace titanium fasteners market growth. The growing aircraft procurement across the region is also anticipated to propel the aerospace titanium fasteners market during the forecast period.
With new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the SAM aerospace titanium fasteners market at a notable CAGR during the forecast period.
