Report Summary
The global aerospace fasteners market was valued at USD 4.93 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. Fasteners are the precision components utilized in aircraft to assemble different parts to form a complete structure. Although they are tiny and considered among small C-Class parts, they account for the highest part count in an aircraft; for instance, Boeing’s B747 aircraft has over six million parts, half of which are fasteners.

Aerospace Fasteners are designed not only to simply perform assembly functions but also to bear or transfer load from one part to another. They are subjected to extremely rigorous and strict standards for materials, processes, and quality assurance. Aerospace fasteners need to be certified by governments and OEMs such as FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), and Boeing and Airbus.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused the aerospace fasteners market severe distress, and the year 2020 was full of uncertainty. The availability of raw materials and the overall supply chain of aerospace fastener has been severely hit with closed borders and lockdowns. Further, a hefty decline in aircraft orders and airlines deferment from receiving aircraft deliveries has caused disruption in the demand for aerospace fasteners as well.
However, the industry tends to recover at an impressive rate in the coming years and overall, there is an excellent growth opportunity for market players with stabilizing the aerospace fasteners market. Aggressive vaccination drives and resumption in air travel across the world are creating a healthy industry outlook in the coming years.

Insight by Product
Nuts & bolts have been industry standard for assembly and joining of various structures, making them the most extensive product being certified and used in aircraft. They are extensively deployed in various application areas during assembly and MRO activities as they with-hold high tensile strength and can affix critical structural components together. Screws are the most widely used threaded component in an aircraft, making it a dominant segment in the aerospace market. Advancements in technologies and innovations have led to the emergence of lightweight yet high-performance screws in the market driving, the growth at an exponential rate. Titanium screws have been among the best candidates with excellent strength, significantly lower weight than steel counterparts, and high corrosion resistance.
Insight by Material
Aluminum alloy holds massive dominance in the market driven by its diversified usage across aluminum fuselage and wings. Best-selling aircraft platforms B737 and A320 including their variants, have aluminum airframes with aluminum-based aerospace fasteners deployed across surfaces. Superalloys have ability to withstand extreme stresses and temperature environments experienced by aerospace equipment and components. Some of the key factors giving impetus to the growth of superalloys include high strength, extreme temperature resistance, weight savings, high versatility, and resistance to corrosion and creep factors.
Insight by Aircraft
Narrow-body aircraft withstands the highest share of the global market driven by metallic airframe construction of best-selling narrow-body aircraft platform giving impetus of aerospace fasteners over adhesives. Increasing aircraft deliveries and a huge pile of narrow-body aircraft order backlogs further ensure healthy market opportunities. In 2020, Airbus was the largest OEM that managed to deliver 566 commercial aircraft, of which 446 alone were A320 family, and 38 were A220, both of which are key narrow -aircraft platforms across the world. The wide-body aircraft segment is more minor than narrow-body aircraft due to fewer deliveries.
However, there is a significantly high penetration of aerospace component in long-haul aircraft with wider bodies. For instance, two of the biggest aircraft platforms, B747 and A380 have more than six million parts and nearly half of which is just fasteners. The increasing share of next-generation wide-body aircraft platforms such as A350XWB and B787 having 50% content of composites is restraining the demand for aerospace fasteners as there is more usage of adhesives instead of fasteners.
Geographic Overview
Geographically, North America will lead the market driven by the strong leadership of the USA in both civil as well as defense aircraft. The region is hub for commercial aircraft production, business jet production, and fighter aircraft production along with its strong MRO capabilities driving the demand for aerospace component for both OEM and aftermarket. It has been continuously building up manufacturing capabilities, strengthening its leadership in the market. In May 2020, Airbus inaugurated its completed assembly line of A220 aircraft in Mobile, Alabama USA, which garnered an impressive 64 orders in 2020.
Asia Pacific region depicts the highest market growth driven by a rise in the number of aerospace component manufacturers in Asian countries The rise in the number of component manufacturers in India, China, and Southeast Asian Countries is giving an impetus to the demand for aerospace fasteners in the region. Further, significant investments also facilitate domestic manufacturing that has increased the demand in Asian market.
Competitive Landscape
The development of lightweight aerospace components with the ability to withstand highly corrosive environments and bear required stress is the prime strategy adopted by leading players to gain a competitive edge in the market. There has been a series of mergers & acquisitions in the market, increasing the consolidation level of the market gradually.
