Chinese maker of superalloy and special-steel bar/wire used in aerospace, oil-and-gas and automotive fasteners.
Chinese maker of superalloy and special-steel bar/wire used in aerospace, oil-and-gas and automotive fasteners.
Melts nickel-based and other superalloys and sells the bars and wire to forgers and fastener makers, with prices typically built from the cost of the metals plus a processing premium that is larger for aerospace-grade alloy. Each customer must approve a material before ordering it in volume.
In one line: A small, aerospace-alloy Carpenter Technology.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, customer qualification). Aerospace-grade alloy qualification is slow, giving incumbents an edge once approved.
