Rising Structural Failures in Aerospace Driving The Demand for the Aerospace Fastener Market

Published: Nov 2025

Aerospace fasteners market was valued at $7.25 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $13.23 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 14.1% during the forecast period (2026–2035). The growing number and severity of structural fatigue and quality control incidents highlight the critical need for a robust MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) lifecycle, which serves as a key driver accelerating the growth and sophistication of the aerospace fastener market.

Some real-life incidents show how important it is to consider MRO for the aerospace industry:

  • In January 2024, Alaska Airlines Flight 1,282's case NTSB’s investigation highlighted that door plug separation was due to failure to reinstall four critical retaining bolts/fasteners after the panel’s opening in the assembly line. And in response to this incident, all airlines were legally required to perform the MRO of all similar aircraft on a priority basis.
  • The tragic crash of UPS Airlines Flight 2976 (MD-11) in November 2025, suffered left engine separation during takeoff, which led to the inspection of pylon attach fittings and structural fasteners as per the order of the FAA issued Airworthiness Directive (AD).
  • In the case of the Robinson R44 helicopter, an AD mandate was issued by the authorities to replace all flex plates, and the flex plate bolts if any signs of cracks, corrosion, or loose fasteners are found.
  • In April 2025, a helicopter crashed in the Hudson River, experiencing in-flight breakup due to the failure of the tail boom, which is highly sensitive to intense vibration and fatigue stress. In this case usage of a smart fastener may have detected an abnormal increase in stress or vibration in real time.

As a result, companies are prioritizing MRO to meet safety measures and in the life-extending initiative of aircraft. And technological advancements like digital twin technology (which detects when a fastener will reach its fatigue limit), AI, and blockchain are redefining the MRO market landscape for the better and efficient performance of the aerospace industry.
