Engine valves are directly or indirectly associated with the energy transfer from the engine to other components. The fluid flowing through a valve may be hydraulic fluid, pressurized air, fuel, or lubricant depending upon the application. These valves may be pressure or temperature-triggered, electrically operated, or manually controlled. The main purposes of the engine valve are to start the aircraft, transmit power to different aircraft systems, and protect the engine (turbines) from overheating or freezing.
Market Drivers
After a mammoth decline in 2020, the aerospace industry started recording from 2022 onwards (19.1% YoY, 2022). Key factors fueling the growth of the market are rebounding commercial aircraft production, aging aircraft fleet size, increasing use of electric valves in modern aircraft, and fervent efforts toward developing electric aircraft as the companies are focusing more on servo-hydraulic and servo-pneumatic valves.

By Valve Type
“Pneumatic valve dominates the market during the forecast period.”
The aircraft valves market is segmented into pneumatic valves, hydraulic valves, fuel valves, and other valves. The pneumatic valve is expected to remain the largest and fastest-growing engine valve type in the market during the forecast period.
The aircraft pneumatic system is responsible for starting the engine, transmitting power from the engine to the aircraft, and pressurizing hydraulic fluid. The valves involved in this process are termed control valves and are triggered by the pressure difference between the aircraft and the atmosphere.
By Material Type
“Titanium dominates the market during the forecast period.”
The market is segmented into titanium, aluminum, and others. Titanium is expected to remain the dominant material type in the market during the forecast period. Titanium and its alloys are used in valves because of their low weight, high strength (high specific strength), and heat protection characteristics.
Amid the Russian-Ukrainian war, there has been a sharp increase in the price of materials, especially titanium alloys. Both airframers, Boeing and Airbus, are working hard to develop alternate titanium suppliers after the ban on imports from Russia. Russia is the powerhouse of titanium production. Other materials, such as steel and composites, are also used for the manufacturing of aircraft engine valves.

By Aircraft Type
“Commercial aircraft dominates the market during the forecast period.”
The market is segmented into commercial aircraft, general aviation, business aircraft, military aircraft, helicopters, and UAVs. Commercial aircraft are likely to remain the biggest demand generator for engine valves in the foreseeable future.
After a significant drop in commercial aircraft production amid the pandemic, all major airframers, especially Boeing and Airbus, are raising the production rates of their key programs. Supply chain disruption, labor shortage, inflation, etc. remain a big challenge before engine makers and airframers achieve their targets. CFM (Safran/GE JV) delivered 1,136 LEAP engines (certified for A320neo, B737Max, and C919) in 2022 and has set a target to deliver 1,300 engines in the year 2023, despite supply chain disruption.
By End-User Type
“OE dominates the market during the forecast period.”
The market is segmented into OE and aftermarket. OE will be the dominant as well as the fastest-growing end-user type in the market. During the flight, aircraft valves must function properly, which frequently leads to component wear and tears.
Flight hours of fleets have exponentially grown because of the rise in aviation travel across areas. The number of days an airplane is in service, and the number of flying hours directly affect the replacement cycle of aerospace valves. In addition, there are no repairs or upkeep tests performed on aerospace valves; they are simply replaced.
Regional Analysis
“North America is estimated to maintain its dominance in the aircraft engine valve market during the forecast period.”
All the major valve producers like Honeywell, Triumph, Woodward Inc., and Collins Aerospace have a strong presence in the region. Airframers, like Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, and Lockheed Martin, contribute a substantial share of the region’s market. The demand in this area is mainly driven by the assembly of engines and aircraft and technological developments in valve technologies.
With the highest growth in the demand for aircraft valves, Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. China, Japan, Singapore, and India are the leading markets in Asia-Pacific. As per Boeing’s latest commercial aircraft outlook, approximately 17,000 aircraft are likely to be delivered in the Asia-Pacific region out of which 8,500 will be in China only. India is likely to add about 2,400 aircraft in the next twenty years.
