From 30,000 feet to the front lines, failure is not an option. FKI USA delivers high-precision metal stamping and fabrication solutions for the Aerospace and Defense sectors. We combine the cosmetic perfection required for commercial aircraft interiors with the rugged durability demanded by military applications Read more
In the modern commercial cabin, aesthetics are as critical as aerodynamics. FKI USA leverages decades of experience in the “Class A” Appliance industry to manufacture aerospace components that are visually flawless. We eliminate the “industrial” look of standard stamping, providing you with parts that enhance the passenger experience.
We specialize in high-touch, high-visibility components where surface finish is paramount:
Seamless, deep-drawn stainless steel housings for coffee makers, chillers, and convection ovens.
High-strength structural brackets, armrest mechanisms, and decorative seat frame covers.
Polished lighting bezels, lavatory fixtures, and overhead bin latch assemblies.
We process 300-Series Stainless Steel, Aluminum (6061/7075), and Titanium with protective masking to prevent scratches during production.
Engineer’s Note: Our Deep Draw capabilities allow us to replace welded galley boxes with single-piece drawn cans, reducing weight and eliminating leak paths
When equipment is deployed in harsh field environments, weld seams are a liability. FKI USA utilizes advanced Deep Draw Stamping technology to create single-piece, seamless enclosures that offer superior structural rigidity and natural EMI/RFI shielding.
Our Texas facility supports defense contractors with ITAR-compliant manufacturing processes, ensuring your technical data and supply chain remain secure.
Ruggedized cases for radios, battery boxes, and ammunition handling.
Deep drawn covers for radar, sonar, and optical systems requiring watertight integrity.
Heavy-gauge chassis components and brackets for transport vehicles and loaders.
Precision stamped casings and shells manufactured to tight tolerances
600-Ton Press Capacity with Complex Geometry Expertise
We bridge the gap between boutique prototype shops and massive commodity stampers. FKI USA offers the engineering depth to handle complex geometries and the tonnage to form heavy-gauge superalloys.
