The aerospace fasteners market size was valued at $7,423.9 million in 2020, and is expected to reach $12,808.9 million by 2030, registering a CAGR 5.5% from 2021 to 2030. Aerospace fasteners are the hardware tools that are used for combining two or more objects in aircraft designing and manufacturing. The materials commonly used in the aerospace fasteners include nuts, bolts, titanium, nickel-based alloys, high strength alloys, and others. The aviation industry is always ready to adopt new technologies to reduce the overall weight of the aircraft. The standards of aerospace fasteners materials such as high operating temperature and resistance to corrosion are kept in mind to improve the fuel economy. Aerospace fasteners are mostly used in military aircraft (fighter jets), ballistic missiles, defense, satellites, and other commercial purposes aircraft.
Rapid growth in global air travel owing to high standard of living, and rise in tourism majorly drive the market growth. In addition, relief in the import duties in some countries for the manufacturers drives the growth of the aerospace fasteners market. Further, many countries are focused on strengthening defense system by including fighter jets, military helicopters, and other special aircrafts in their military airforce. These factors act drive the aerospace fasteners market growth. However, 3D printing technology used in aircraft manufacturing is used for performing structural function in the aircraft. For instance, 3D printing is used for manufacturing components like panels, ducts, wings, and others. 3D technology is used for manufacturing lightweight components and reducing the number of components by printing two different adjacent parts into one single component. This is anticipated to reduce the demand for aerospace fasteners as there would be less assemblies. This acts as restraint to the market growth. Furthermore, during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, construction, manufacturing, hotel, and tourism industries were majorly affected. Manufacturing activities were halted or restricted. Construction and transportation activities, along with their supply chains, were hampered on a global level. This led to decline in manufacturing of aerospace fasteners as well as their demand in the market, thereby restraining the growth of the aerospace fasteners market. Conversely, industries are gradually resuming their regular manufacturing and services. This is expected to lead to re-initiation of aerospace fasteners companies at their full-scale capacities, which is likely to help the aerospace fasteners market to recover by mid of 2022.
On the contrary, increase in adoption of aerospace application in emerging countries has surged the demand for aircrafts. In addition, the aerospace fastener makers are progressively concentrating on developing countries such as Mexico, Brazil, India, and China for increasing their manufacturing. This offers open doors for outsider organizations to team up with OEMs and MROs for providing services in emerging market. This is anticipated to open new avenues for the aerospace fasteners market during the forecast period.
