The aircraft wheels market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 603.49 million in 2021 to US$ 906.17 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2021 to 2028.
The conventional aircraft wheels are made of magnesium alloys. However, in modern times, manufacturers are increasingly exploring lightweight materials to manufacture aircraft wheels to attain great durability and low maintenance. Also, the aircraft wheels made of lightweight alloys help aircraft manufacturers achieve an optimum fuel efficiency level by reducing the weight of aircraft to some extent. Thus, in the wake of new technological developments in aircraft wheels, the manufacturers are extensively using various types of aluminum alloys to make the wheels lighter and confer better corrosion resistance to them. UTC Aerospace Systems (UTAS) is exploring a silver-based aluminum alloy to develop an aircraft wheel. The strength of new wheels is expected to increase by ~20%. In addition, the new silver-based aluminum alloy is projected to increase damage tolerance by ~70% owing to its stiffness and improved corrosion resistance. The silver-based aluminum variant is also likely to reduce maintenance downtime, alongside making the wheels lighter. Hence, the rising adoption of lightweight alloys to manufacture aircraft wheel drives the growth of the aircraft wheels market.
The US is the worst-hit North American country by the COVID-19 pandemic. The continuous rise in number of infected individuals led governments to impose lockdown across the nation's borders in Q2 and Q3 of 2020. The majority of the manufacturing plants were either temporarily shut or operated with minimum staff; the aircraft OEMs, and associated components product manufacturers witnessed disruption in supply chain. Since the US has a larger density of manufacturers of aircraft, and aircraft-associated technologies and components, than Canada and Mexico, the outbreak has severely affected the production. The lower number of manufacturing staff has resulted in lesser production quantity. Boeing, an aviation giant, has witnessed a significant fall in order and production volumes, which is one of the key factors restraining the aircraft wheels market growth. Apart from Boeing, several other aircraft OEMs such as Bombardier, Textron, and Gulfstream also experienced tremors of COVID-19. From the supply side, the region has higher numbers of aircraft wheels market players. The restricted workforce, supply chain disruptions, and limited order volumes have shaken the aircraft wheels market performance in North America.
The North America aircraft wheels market is segmented on the bases of type, aircraft type, fit type, and end-user. Based on type, the market is segmented into nose wheel and main wheel. In 2020, main wheel segment held the largest share of the market. Main wheel of an aircraft is one of the significant components of landing gears as it facilitates structural strength to aircraft during its landing and takeoff. The main wheels of aircraft are designed in two pieces to make them stiffer and more capable of absorbing the landing forces. Aircraft main wheels are manufactured from either aluminum forgings, aluminum castings, or magnesium castings. Furthermore, the number of main wheels units required in any aircraft is larger than the nose wheels. The main wheels segment is expected register a notable CAGR in the market during the forecast period owing to rise in number of landing and takeoffs of each aircraft due to increased demand of airline services; this propels the maintenance, repairing, and overhauling (MRO) service requirements, thus adding to the demand for wheels.
