Aircraft cables are defined as cables that are made by stranding thin steel wires together to offer high versatility, strength, and flexibility. Aircraft cables are used in control systems, lighting, data transfer, power transfer, avionics, and data transmission. Aircraft cables are used in cabin management, wires, and pipelines in aircraft. The main types of aircraft cables are stainless steel material and galvanized steel material. Steel is galvanized when it is hot-dipped in a zinc coating solution. This coating guards the steel against particle corrosion as well as general surface scratches and abrasions. Aircraft cables are used in military aircraft, and civil aircraft and are sold through aftermarket and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) sales channels. Aircraft cables are used in general aviation, airliner, business aircraft, and other applications. The global aircraft cables market is segmented – 1) By Type: Stainless Steel Material, Galvanized Steel Material 2) By Aircraft Type: Military Aircraft, Civil Aircraft 3) By Sales Channel: Aftermarket, Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) 4) By Application: General Aviation, Airliner, Business Aircraft, Other Applications The global aircraft cables market size grew from $4.08 billion in 2022 to $4.48 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of the global aircraft cables market is expected to grow from $5.96 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.4%. The increasing demand for the production of new aircraft across the world promotes the growth of the aircraft cable market. Aircraft cables are used to establish an aircraft’s electrical system and to transmit signals into electrical power in commercial aircraft, military aircraft, civil helicopters, and military helicopters. Thus, the increase in demand for aircraft holds a positive effect on the demand for the production of aircraft wires. For instance, in March 2021, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a Canada-based trade association of the world's airlines, the total number of travelers in 2021 was 47% higher as compared to previous years and is anticipated to rise to 83% in 2022, 94% in 2023, 103% in 2024, and 111% in 2025. According to the forecast by Airbus in 2022, demand for passenger traffic is estimated to grow at 3.6% over the next 20 years, following demand for 39.490 new passenger and freighter aircraft over the period. The increased production of new aircraft will result in an increased demand for aircraft cables market. Major players in the aircraft cables market are TE Connectivity, Amphenol, AMETEK Inc., Loos & Co. Inc., Radiall, Pic Wire & Cable, W.L. Gore & Associates, A.E.Petsche, Arrow Electronics Inc., and Collins Aerospace. The growth of the aircraft cable market is restricted because of the backlogging of aircraft. The aircraft backlog hampers the demand for aircraft cables. Aircraft backlog occurs when the orders of aircraft manufacturing have not been fulfilled or run the risk of their potential cancellation or postponement in their date of delivery. The cases of accidents of aircraft that impact the sale of new aircraft, heavy competition among the aircraft producers, and the time required to build a new aircraft result in heavy backlogs in many cases. Thus, the huge number of aircraft backlogs may result in an opportunity loss for the companies in the aircraft manufacturing to manufacture new aircraft, thus, reducing the demand for aircraft cables. For instance, in March 2020, GoAir, a Mumbai-based Indian airline, had to suspend a few of its flights due to the failure of Airbus to deliver aircraft as per their deal. Airbus was expected to deliver 144 Airbus A320neo planes on order from GoAir through the period of 2016-2020. Thus, the results of aircraft backlog hamper the demand for new aircraft cables, negatively affecting the growth of the aircraft cables market. The companies involved in the aircraft cable market are investing in producing cables to meet the need for high-performance data applications required in aircraft systems. Such high-performance data applications are used in cabin management systems, ethernet backbones, computers, servers, and low-skew video. Following the trend, in January 2021, Carlisle Interconnect Technologies US-based designers and manufacturers of high-performance wire and cable introduced UTiPHASETM microwave cable assembly, which is capable of delivering outstanding electrical phase stability versus temperature without compromising microwave performance. They are ideal in defense, space, and testing applications. In January 2020, Loos & Co., Inc., a US-based leading manufacturer of military specification aircraft cable and aircraft cable assemblies acquired Sheaves, In. for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Loos & Co., Inc. aims to strengthen its portfolio in wire and cable manufacturing.
