The Value of Custom Flight Hardware

When manufacturing aerospace components, even the smallest intricacies can make the difference between optimal performance and equipment failure. Custom flight hardware solves these challenges by meeting tailored specifications and production tolerances. These specialized parts optimize the integrity, efficiency and safety of aerospace systems when standard off-the-shelf components fall short.

Flight Hardware Components

Flight hardware for aerospace applications includes gaskets, seals, bellows, retainers and more. Conversion processes range from injection molding and vacuum forming to composite bonding and machining. Strict specifications help ensure passenger safety while optimizing fuel efficiency and structural integrity.

At Polycraft Products, Inc., we base material selection on heat resistance, bonding capabilities, durability and a range of characteristics required to meet the design intent.

Common materials include:

• Thermoplastics
• Metals
• Elastomers
• Pre-impregnated fabric
• Epoxy and other adhesives

Benefits of Custom Flight Hardware

Custom hardware for airplanes provides added value by allowing for an optimized design to meet performance needs and continuously dynamic industry advancements. The importance of custom flight hardware is evident when considering the strict tolerances and the range of materials needed for each unique application.

Advantages of choosing customization include:

• Precision engineering: Customers can receive flight hardware engineered to exact specifications, achieving a perfect fit and optimal operation in different operating environments.
• Increased performance: Specialized flight components reduce weight, improve aerodynamics and increase fuel efficiency in ways that standardized parts cannot.
• Extended operation: Purpose-built components can withstand the harshest operating conditions, resulting in reduced maintenance requirements and longer lifespans.
