Aircraft Blind Fasteners Market Growth Analysis | 2023-2028
Aircraft Blind Fasteners Market Size, Share, Trend, Forecast, Competitive Analysis, and Growth Opportunity: 2023-2028.
Blind fasteners are the most talked about subject among the family of fasteners deployed in aircraft manufacturing/assembly. Blind fasteners are preferably used where the design of the structure or assembly sequence does not grant access from both sides. These fasteners have been gaining a fair share in the overall aircraft fasteners market, owing to the changing preferences of OEMs from permanent fasteners to blind fasteners. Blind fasteners are gradually replacing traditional fasteners because of rapid automation, which is of paramount importance as it reduces the lead time of aircraft assembly.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the aircraft blind fastener market. It caused a sharp decline in air travel, which in turn led to a decline in the demand for new aircraft. This had a knock-on effect on the demand for aircraft blind fasteners, as these are primarily used in the manufacturing of new aircraft. Moreover, supply chain disruptions made it difficult for manufacturers to obtain the raw materials needed to produce blind fasteners. As a result, the market witnessed consecutive declines of double digits in 2020 and 2021.
Despite facing setbacks during the pandemic, the market started to recover with a double-digit growth rate in 2022 with the help of the revocation of air travel restrictions. An increase in air passenger traffic, increasing production rates of the key aircraft programs, such as the A320neo, B737 Max, A220, B787, and A350XWB, emerging aircraft OEMs, which include COMAC and Irkut, rising global aircraft fleet size, increasing preference for blind fasteners for assembling critical aerospace parts, and superior benefits of blind fasteners, including ease of installation over the permanent fasteners are giving impetus to the growth of blind fasteners in the aircraft industry. Overall, the aircraft blind fasteners market is likely to rebound at a promising CAGR of 8.7%, in the long run, to reach US$ 628 Million in 2028.

Based on the aircraft type, the aircraft blind fasteners market is segmented into commercial aircraft, regional aircraft, helicopters, military aircraft, and general aviation. Commercial aircraft is expected to remain dominant as well as the fastest-growing aircraft type in the market during the forecast period. The dominance of the segment is led by the requirement of a large number of fasteners owing to its larger and more complex structure. The increasing production rate of key programs such as B737 and A320, the expected entry of new aircraft programs (C919, B777x, and MC-21), and the rising fleet size of commercial aircraft are further expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
Based on the product type, the market is segmented into blind bolts, blind rivets, and other blind fasteners. Blind rivets are likely to remain the dominant as well as the fastest-growing product type in the market during the forecast period. Key advantages of blind rivets include vibration resistance, fast installation, reliability, and easier inspection and maintenance properties. They are a great alternative to solid rivets in many applications.
Based on the application type, the aircraft blind fasteners market is segmented into the airframe, engine, flight control surfaces, interiors, and others. Airframe is projected to remain the biggest demand generator for blind fasteners in an aircraft during the forecast period. The airframe is the largest structure in the aircraft, where blind fasteners are used in a wide array of applications, including wings and fuselage, leading to their dominance in the market.

Based on the material type, the aircraft blind fasteners market is segmented into titanium, steel, aluminum, and others. Titanium is likely to remain the dominant and fastest-growing material type in the aircraft blind fasteners market over the next five years. Titanium blind fasteners offer a host of advantages over competing fasteners, including good compatibility with composite parts, good corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance, and a high strength-to-weight ratio, leading to their widespread usage in aircraft.
In terms of region, Europe is projected to remain the largest market for aircraft blind fasteners during the forecast period, driven by the presence of one of the leading aircraft OEMs, Airbus. The company has committed to raising the production rates of its key aircraft programs, such as the A320, A330, and A350, to meet the huge order backlog, which stood at 7,967 aircraft on 30th June 2023. Moreover, another leading aircraft OEM, Boeing, has already set up its production plant in the region and is investing in its new facilities.
Asia-Pacific is likely to depict the highest growth during the same period owing to the growing demand for blind fasteners fueled by the opening of assembly plants by Boeing and Airbus in China for the B737, A330, and A320. China and India are the growth engines of the Asia-Pacific’s aircraft blind fasteners market. These economies keep on generating high demand for commercial aircraft to support the rising passenger traffic.
