In addition to Al-based alloys, specially designed alloys make it possible for the aircraft industry to produce high-strength parts for jet engines and airframes where high pressure, temperature and vibration are greatly considered during their design and manufacturing.
Stainless steel, titanium, nickel, copper and their alloys are the major components of aerospace alloys utilized for engine blocks, providing high strength and/or the ability to perform at extremely high temperatures. The ratio of engine power to weight, airframe strength and many other factors drastically affect jet performance. Also, these alloys are designed to be strong, resistant to corrosion and able to maintain their integrity at any temperature.
