Few environments are worse than those encountered in aerospace applications. Extreme temperatures, friction, and vibration can threaten the integrity of mission-critical components. Wonder provides many high-performance materials and special alloys designed to solve the challenges posed by the harsh environment faced by our aerospace customers, including:
- High performance alloy
- Metal Matrix Composite
- Precision Optics
- Aviation Coatings
High-performance alloys meet the extreme needs of aerospace
High and low temperatures, shock loads, and severe vibrations are just some of the extreme conditions that materials will encounter in aerospace applications. Our special alloys designed to meet these needs include:
- M25 alloy provides high fatigue strength and tensile strength for the connector in the signal contact.
- Brush1915® alloy has high conductivity and good formability, and can be used for cold or cold forming into power contacts and connectors.
- Alloy 25 provides higher strength for static and dynamic bushings and bearings used in landing gear, fuselage, actuators and horizontal stabilizers.
- ToughMet® alloy has unparalleled anti-wear and anti-wear properties, making it very suitable for undercarriage, engine hangers, fuselage, actuators, and control surfaces and horizontal stabilizer bushings and bearings.
Metal matrix composites reduce the weight of aerospace components
Our lightweight metal matrix composites (MMC) meet the requirements for high strength and stiffness, and can be optimized for a range of aerospace applications.
- AlBeMet® and AlBeCast® composite materials combine the high modulus and low density characteristics of beryllium with the manufacturing and mechanical properties of aluminum.
- The electronic material beryllium oxide-beryllium MMC has excellent thermal management performance and can work normally as a part of the light radiator of electronic circuits.
- SupremEX®MMC provides high strength and rigidity while reducing weight, making it ideal for engine components or aircraft and satellite structures.
