Titanium · Product form
Titanium Fasteners
I need qualified aerospace fasteners in this alloy. Who actually makes them, and are they on the approved source list?
What it is
Bolts, screws, nuts, rivets, pins and collars made to aerospace or military specification. A distinct manufacturing discipline rather than a mill product: qualification is per part number, and the approved source list is controlled by the airframer or prime.
- Typical dimensions
- Fractional through roughly 1 inch diameter for most airframe fasteners.
- Also known as
- bolts, screws, nuts, rivets, pins, collars, aerospace fasteners
Suppliers
Grouped by what they actually are. A mill and a distributor answer different needs.

Howmet Fastening Systems VerifiedTi-6Al-4V (Grade 5)
Titanium among the stated fastener materials. Aerospace fastener approval runs per part number against an airframer's approved source list. Being a qualified producer generally does not mean being qualified for YOUR part number. Titanium named among fastener materials; Ti-6Al-4V is the standard aerospace fastener grade. Confirm the specific grade for your part number.
