Aircraft components

Polymer High-Flyers

In many sectors today, material properties are subject to extreme demands.Safety, reliability and efficiency are the essential factors that must be taken into account in the area of cabin equipment even from the stage of planning and material selection.

With development competence in profiles, hoses, moldings and sealing systems, we have supplied high-performance solutions to the aircraft industry since 1980.

Our range of services in the aircraft industry is rounded off with know-how in the processing of high-performance, lightweight, fiber composites with no loss of comfort.Well-known manufacturers have relied on this for many years.

The new, innovative materials RAU-FLIGHT and RAU-FLIGHT PA have a far-reaching impact in the sector.They guarantee improved efficiency and energy balance for our customers and they open up completely new options in terms of feel and appearance.

Moldings for edge protection

Moldings

The moldings for the edge protection serve to cover sandwich components / the gaps between luggage compartments.
Moldings to support the luggage compartments are also used.

Grip sections

Air Ducts

Systems

Polyetherimide and silicone PSU intermediate rails are used for the cover between the PSU (personal service unit) and the luggage compartment.
For the air duct systems, REHAU uses a solution in polyetherimide and a silicone seal.

Other system applications for the aircraft industry:

Handrails
Air Ducts

Runner

Fiber composites

For fixing interior components, e.g. in the emergency exit area or for sliding window channels, numerous holders and slide guides are used.
Clamping and guide rails are also needed as connecting rails for the side panels or for fixing the side panels to the fuselage.
Here, the parts must also undergo demanding static tests.

Seat rail cover

Profile

The profiles area includes a whole range of components for the cabin space, e.g. such as seat rail covers. The seats in the cabin are anchored in aluminum rails. The positions and distances between them are variable. Between the seat fixing points, the aluminum rails are protected with polyamide 12 seat rail covers.
The rails are flame retardant and have uniform, matt brushed surfaces.

Other aircraft interior components in the profiles segment include:

Kick boards
Cover profiles
Lighting covers
Side panels or fixing aids (silicone components)
