Aerospace Valves Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Aerospace Valves Market Analysis

The Aircraft Valves Market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period.

• The decrease in the COVID-19 pandemic had increased passenger numbers at the airport. Removal of border restrictions by various governments, as well as ease in restrictions for travel, was the main factor for such growth, and this has led to various aircraft OEMs being able to increase production of the aircraft and meeting the delivery timelines, which has, in turn, led to an increase in the demand for aircraft valves. In addition, opening the barriers by various countries also led to free flow in terms of the supply of the necessary components required to produce aircraft valves. This has resulted in the aircraft valves market witnessing steady growth during the forecast period.
• An increase in the number of air passenger traffic worldwide has led to increased stress on airports globally to cope with the rise in passenger demand. Various aircraft OEMs are now increasing the production of the new generation of aircraft and are trying to meet their aircraft delivery deadlines. Moreover, an increasing global commercial aircraft fleet size due to rising air passenger traffic is giving an impetus to the replacement demand for aerospace valves, especially from maintenance, repair, and overhaul companies. Aerospace valves are exposed to wear and tear during continuous flight operations and are generally replaced rather than repaired. Currently, there is also a significant market opportunity to integrate the Internet of Things (IOTs) among aerospace valves to improve performance, enhance reliability, smooth functioning, and significantly reduce lifecycle costs. Proactive failure detection and predictive maintenance record with IOTs help in proper and timely repairs to the valves, thereby enabling better discrete functioning with effective data-based decision-making.

The Butterfly Valve Segment Is Expected To Grow Significantly During The Forecast Period

Aerospace Valves Industry Segmentation

The valves in an engine, known as engine valves, are designed to balance and control the flow of gasses that come into and out of the cylinders located in the engine. They are intended to regulate the gas levels during the engine's combustion process. In basic terms, they serve to open and close a portal for air or gas coming in and out of the engine. Valves are often classified by the shape of the head, which may be flat, mushroom-type, tulip, or semi-tulip. Additionally, intake valves, for instance, must operate at lower temperatures than exhaust valves, usually made up of nickel, chrome, or tungsten steel. In contrast, the exhaust valves must withstand higher temperatures, which means they must be made of a more heat-resistant material, like silicon-chromium, cobalt-chromium alloys, or Inconel.

Additionally, the market has been segmented by valve, aircraft, application, and geography. By valve type, the market has been segmented by butterfly valve, ball valve, rotary valve, gate valve, and others. By aircraft type, the market has been segmented into commercial aircraft, general aviation aircraft, business aircraft, military aircraft, and helicopters. By application, the market has been segmented by the fuel system, hydraulic system, pneumatic system, and others. By geography, the market has been segmented by North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. The report offers a market forecast and is represented by USD million.
