Aerospace
We serve manufacturers of structural components and precision machined parts for the aerospace industry, a sector with no margin for error and where material traceability is mandatory. These applications demand high-strength aluminum, high-performance alloy steels and stainless steels selected for their strength-to-weight ratio, dimensional stability and behavior under fatigue and temperature. At NAT MAC we supply these materials with the quality, certification and documentation the sector requires, in forms suited to precision machining. We add cut-to-size services, including waterjet, which does not alter the material's properties, and technical advice to meet the strictest specifications, helping every component meet the safety and performance requirements of the industry.
