Executive Summary

Aircraft hydraulic systems play a crucial role in the movement and actuation of landing gears in an aircraft, generating force and transmitting pressure to enable the aircraft to ascend. These systems are instrumental in controlling and managing various equipment, including brakes, flaps, and thrust reversers in aircraft.

The primary types of aircraft hydraulic systems are open-center and closed-center. An open-center hydraulic system is designed to pump and circulate fluid from the reservoir to selector valves and back, facilitating fluid flow with no pressure in the system when actuating mechanisms are idle. This system can work for any number of subsystems. Components of these systems include reservoirs, pumps, valves, hydraulic fuses, accumulators, actuators, and others. Different fluid types involved in hydraulic systems include vegetable-based, petroleum-based, and synthetic-based fluids, catering to various wing types such as fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. These systems find applications across different end-users, including the air force, commercial aviation, and general aviation.

This aircraft hydraulic system market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The aircraft hydraulic system market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.29 billion in 2023 to $2.61 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the expansion of commercial aviation, modernization efforts in military aircraft, the aging aircraft fleet, adherence to aircraft safety regulations, and the emergence of new markets in the aviation industry.

The aircraft hydraulic system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.34 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the development of electric aircraft, the recovery of air travel, increased defense budgets, and the influence of trade and geopolitical factors. Key trends expected in this forecast period encompass electrification and hybridization in aviation, the implementation of sustainable hydraulic systems, the integration of IoT (Internet of Things) and predictive maintenance practices, the utilization of smart sensors, and the adoption of additive manufacturing in the aviation industry.

An increase in the usage of larger commercial aircraft is expected to propel the growth of the aircraft hydraulic system market going forward. The term larger-sized commercial aircraft refers to aircraft that carry 12,500 pounds. Aircraft hydraulics help to achieve the essential consistency for large-scale aircraft and also lower the cooling cost and increase the load handling capacity. For instance, according to the Bureau of Transportation, a US-based department of transportation, in May 2021, the U.S. airlines carried 607% more scheduled service passengers than in May 2020, and large airlines' passenger travel has increased from 8 million in 2020 to 56.6 million in 2021. Therefore, the increase in usage of larger commercial aircraft is driving the growth of the aircraft hydraulic system market.

An increase in air traffic is expected to propel the growth of the aircraft hydraulic systems market going forward. Air travel refers to a form of travel in vehicles such as airplane, jet aircraft, helicopters, hot air balloons, blimps, gliders, hang gliders, parachutes, or anything else that can sustain flight. With higher usage, hydraulic systems require more frequent maintenance and inspections to ensure they are functioning correctly. Regular checks and servicing are vital to prevent hydraulic system failures, which can have catastrophic consequences. For instance, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, a US-based Government Agency, US airlines carried nearly 194 million more passengers in 2022 than in 2021, up 30% year-to-year. Therefore, an increase in air traffic is expected to contribute to the growth of the aircraft hydraulic systems market.

Technological advancements have emerged as the key trend gaining popularity in the aircraft hydraulic system market. Major companies operating in the market are introducing new technologies to sustain their position in the market. For instance, Greene Tweed, a US-based high-performance seal manufacturer, announced the launch of its new L-Cap seal for hydraulic applications in aerospace. The new L-Cap seal is said to surpass industry standards for performance and durability due to the use of proprietary Avalon PTFE, Arlon PEEK, and elastomer materials. This guarantees a long service life, minimal fluid leakage, and excellent performance over a wide temperature range. Greene Tweed's L-Cap seal, used in crucial flight actuation systems, offers superior fluid sealing in hydraulic cylinders even at very high pressures.

Major companies within the aircraft hydraulic systems market are innovating with solutions like the Turcon VL Seal II, aimed at enhancing sealing efficiency, facilitating easier installation, and ensuring even greater reliability. The Turcon VL Seal II serves as a high-performance sealing solution primarily designed for use in hydraulic aircraft systems, specifically in actuators involved in flight controls and landing gear shock absorbers. This unidirectional rod seal, comprising an 'L' shaped Turcon jacket energized by an O-Ring, is tailored for reciprocating movements. For example, in January 2021, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions Aerospace, a Sweden-based engineering group, introduced the Turcon VL Seal II, a revolutionary sealing solution for hydraulic actuators in flight controls and landing gear systems, offering outstanding leak-free performance, contributing to extended service life and reduced planned maintenance. The implementation of this seal allowed for quicker testing of potential designs, significantly shortening proving times and expediting the identification of the ideal seal design early in the testing phase.

In June 2021, Eaton, a US-based power management company, completed the acquisition of Cobham Mission Systems for an undisclosed sum. With this acquisition, Eaton aims to leverage power management technology and services to improve lives and the environment while positioning its aerospace division for future growth. Cobham Mission Systems, based in the UK, is an aerospace company known for manufacturing hydraulic systems, making it a strategic addition to Eaton's aerospace operations.
