Shapes Aerospace provides a wide variety of high-end fabrication and machining services to a prestigious clientele. We thrive on challenging requirements.

Here are a few examples of complex and demanding projects.



Space Shuttle SRB External Tank Upper Attach Strut Assembly Space Shuttle SRB External Tank Upper Attach Strut Assembly

The SRB upper attachment strut assembly is comprised of a series of precision parts, machined using EDM and CNC processes from Inconel 718 alloy. The assembly attaches the solid rocket boosters to the external fuel tank. This is a manned space flight critical, high reliability, quality intensive system.



Warhead Replacement Tactical Telemetry Module Warhead Replacement Tactical Telemetry Module

WRTTM is a series of precision machined, highly finished parts forming the structure of a warhead replacement telemetry system for the AMRAAM air-to-air missile system, one of the most sophisticated air-launched missile systems in the world.



Turbojet Engine Hush Kits Turbojet Engine Hush Kits

Hush kit nozzles are additions to the tail pipes of turbojet engines which allow older aircraft to meet FAA Stage 3 Noise Reduction Standards. These assemblies must withstand very high temperatures, frequent and extreme thermal cycling, high vibration, and high dynamic pressures imposed by both the jet exhaust and the airflow around the aircraft. We have produced these components for the Boeing 707, 727, BAC 111, and Gulfstream G2 and G3 series aircraft. We are currently producing them for the McDonnell-Douglas MD-80.
