Primary structure carries the main flight and ground loads: fuselage frames and bulkheads, wing spars and ribs, stringers and longerons. Secondary or support structure attaches systems, interiors and equipment to it: brackets, clips, fittings, reinforcements and mounts.
Our typical scope is support structure and installation hardware machined to your drawing. For the machining route of each part family, see how aerospace structural parts are machined.
Brackets, fittings, mount blocks, press blocks, locating shafts, window and seat frames, footrest structures, panel reinforcements, bushings and aisle spreadbars, machined to your drawing.
Aerospace fittings join parts and carry load in airframes, cabins and equipment installations. We machine them to your drawing, first article to repeat batches.
Aerospace brackets attach equipment, harnesses, ducts and interior parts to the airframe. We machine them to your drawing, first article to repeat batches.
Angle, channel and Z aerospace brackets; cable routing and mounting brackets.
7075 / 7050 aluminum, Ti-6Al-4V
Seat-track, attach and tie-rod end aerospace fittings; hinge blocks.
7050-T7451 aluminum, Ti-6Al-4V, 15-5PH
Mount blocks, spacers, press blocks and holders for electrical connectors.
7075 / 6061 aluminum, 17-4PH, PEEK
Window and seat frames, footrest supports; long ones via large parts machining.
7075 / 6061 aluminum, titanium
Panel reinforcements that stiffen panels; spreadbars that carry aisle floor loads.
7050 / 7075 aluminum
Shafts, pins and sleeves that position and align mating parts.
15-5PH / 17-4PH stainless, Ti-6Al-4V7075-T7351 plate
Stress-relieved, overaged: less distortion, better SCC resistance than T6
7050-T7451 plate
Thick hogged-out parts; keeps toughness and SCC resistance through the section
2024-T351
Fatigue and damage tolerance in tension-loaded parts
6061-T651
Lower-load brackets and frames; good corrosion resistance and machinability
Ti-6Al-4V (AMS 4911)
Strong for its weight; galvanically compatible with carbon-fiber structure
15-5PH / 17-4PH
High-load pins, lugs and shafts that need strength and corrosion resistance
Stress-relieved tempers, balanced roughing on both faces, a rest, then light re-clamping to finish.
True position is checked against the drawing's datums (ASME Y14.5), not the nearest edge.
5-axis machining puts angled faces and holes in one setup on one datum scheme.
Conductive, corrosion-protected aluminum by chromate conversion coating, per the drawing's callout.
Type II for corrosion protection of structural aluminum; Type III hard anodizing for wear-resistant faces.
Stainless steel pins, lugs and shafts, passivated per the drawing's callout.
Documents on request; repeat batches follow the first article's inspection plan.
Questions on structural part materials, tempers, titanium fittings, distortion control and inspection data.
Send your drawing and 3D model for a quote: an engineer reviews it before machining, NDAs are signed on request, and repeat batches follow the same inspection plan.
