Oriental Bluesky Titanium Technology Co., Ltd. is the first Chinese fastener supply company that has been approved to supply fasteners used on C919 (a new aircraft developed by a Chinese company). Oriental Bluesky has been registered into the supplier list for commercial flight and can thus provide products and service to various large sized aircrafts.

 

C919 is the first large sized aircraft that is 100% designed and produced in China for commercial flight. It is expected that the flight test will soon be implemented this year and the first-batch aircrafts will be delivered to the customer in 2018. The assembly of a C919 will need over 1.8 million pieces of fasteners including over 0.2 million pieces of Ti-alloy fasteners. When the capacity of Oriental Bluesky for manufacturing Ti-alloy fasteners is fully utilized, about 4 million pieces of high-end fasteners will be produced every year, which can thus satisfy roughly 30% of the total demand of the Chinese market for aviation and aerospace fasteners.

 

“At the inception of the company, Oriental Bluesky focused on the development of products used for C919. Now it has been able to produce 70% of all the fasteners used on C919,” said Xin Wang., “Such a result is not only favorable to the acceleration of the development program of big planes 100% made in China but also help promote Chinese brands through providing service to the development of satellites and rockets as well as project cooperation with domestic Chinese leading universities.
