Howmet Aerospace Inc.HWM
Industrials

Supplies superalloy engine components, aerospace fasteners and fluid fittings, titanium and aluminum airframe structures, and forged commercial-vehicle wheels. Revenue is anchored in commercial and defense aerospace, while aircraft build rates, engine-spares demand, customer qualifications, and concentrated relationships with major engine makers shape the business.

Supplies precision-engineered metal components through Engine Products, Fastening Systems, Engineered Structures, and Forged Wheels. Products include superalloy airfoils, rings, and disks for aircraft engines and gas turbines; aerospace and industrial fasteners and fluid fittings; titanium and aluminum airframe structures; and Alcoa Wheels-branded forged aluminum wheels for commercial vehicles.

Combines materials science with complex casting, forging, machining, and coatings across a global manufacturing footprint, with most sales shipped from North America and Europe. Demand is anchored in commercial and defense aerospace, with additional exposure to gas turbines and commercial transportation. Results depend on aircraft production and engine-spares demand, defense spending, qualified manufacturing continuity, major engine customers including GE Aerospace and RTX, and supplies of titanium, nickel, cobalt, aluminum, and specialized alloys.
