Aerospace Bar
Speciality Alloys for the Aerospace Industry
Producing high integrity alloys
For more than 60 years, LIBERTY Speciality Steels has developed an outstanding reputation as a manufacturer of aerospace steels with systems and products approved by over 100 OEMs, primes and third party accreditations.
Our high integrity specialist steels are used in major commercial and military aerospace projects around the world, using tailored supply chain solutions.
A sincere commitment to quality and product excellence is underpinned by our philosophy of ‘right first time’ and continued investment in new technology.
Our products, delivered as ingot, bar and cut pieces in quantities from as little as 1kg, are used in the production of engine components, landing gear, controls, aerostructures and helicopter rotor components.
Our intent is to provide our customers with a truly bespoke offering, either direct from the mill or from one of our service centres.
