Aircraft Propeller Systems Market Summary

Aircraft Propeller System Market Analysis

The Aircraft Propeller Systems Market size is estimated at USD 403.08 million in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 553.82 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.56% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The ongoing R&D of next-generation turboprop aircraft, the stable growth in the sales of the different types of aircraft, and the increasing demand for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are expected to propel the growth of the aircraft propeller systems market. Increased focus on reducing vibration and interior noise acts as a driver for the market. Advancements in aircraft propeller systems technology also play a crucial role in enhancing aircraft performance, further propelling market growth. Moreover, growth in aircraft sales and production, especially from the commercial segment, is generating demand for exhaust systems for aircraft.

R&D on new propeller designs, such as a team in MIT Lincoln Lab's Structural and Thermal-Fluids Engineering Group working on new annular shape toroidal propellers, which are radically quieter (noise range 1-5 kHz) than traditional propellers. Similarly, Hartzell tested its new five-blade swept airfoiled carbon fiber propeller on a flight of a Hydrogen-Powered Airliner. It is part of a project with Universal Hydrogen where Hartzell Propeller is working and supporting advanced air mobility manufacturers. Such initiatives from various companies contribute to the growth of the market.

Aircraft OEMs and part manufacturers face several challenges involving additional costs that are incurred while complying with cumbersome certification processes. It poses a challenge for the mass-scale production of aircraft parts and components. Thus, the stringent certification process acts as a barrier to new entrants with the potential to enter the aircraft propeller systems market. The advent of innovative manufacturing technologies such as additive manufacturing and the increasing use of digital propeller vibration monitoring systems are anticipated to significantly impact the market prospects in the future.

Aircraft Propeller System Industry Overview

The aircraft propeller system market is consolidated and the major players in the aircraft propeller systems market include Hartzell Propeller Inc., General Electric Company, RTX Corporation, Textron Aviation Inc., and Airmaster Propellers, with each having access to the key geographical regions. For players to sustain themselves in the market studied, it is very critical to establish themselves with a client and cater to their custom requirements with superior quality, performance, and the lowest possible price. 

The demand for aircraft propellers in the coming years is expected to be from Asia, Russia, and the Middle East. First, entry may be beneficial to any entrant in the market studied. For instance, in June 2021, Piedmont Propulsion Systems was awarded a contract by the Mexican airline Transportes Aeromar to support its fleet of ATR 42 and 72 aircraft. Piedmont Propulsion Systems conducted comprehensive propeller repair for the aircraft as part of the multi-year arrangement.

The market may also witness inorganic growth due to prominent players trying to retain market share. On this note, in July 2021, Hartzell Propeller acquired the assets of Tanis Aircraft Products, a Minnesota-based manufacturer of engine preheat systems for fixed and rotary-wing aircraft. The Tanis brand will now be a part of Hartzell Propeller's heated product line. It also includes systems for battery, avionics, cabin, and propeller de-icing, as well as systems for piston, turbine, and helicopter engines.

Aircraft Propeller System Market News

  • February 2023: Hamilton Sundstrand Corp., a division of Collins Aerospace, was awarded a USD 135 million contract to manufacture the NP2000 eight-blade propeller and electronic propeller control system for the US Air Force's (USAF) C-130 Hercules aircraft. As per the terms of the contract, the mechanical control systems of the C-130H would be replaced by an updated version of propellers and control systems from Hamilton Sunstrand Corp. The replacement will enhance speed holding and blade synchronization while lowering vibration and interior noise in the cargo plane.
  • June 2022: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted Hartzell Propeller a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC), allowing it to swap out the Diamond DA40 NG MT wood/composite propellers with new, higher-performing, lightweight, three-bladed Polaris composite propellers. The three-blade, 74-inch-diameter ASCII carbon fiber prop for the Austro Engine E4-A includes a Bantam aluminum hub. It is a lightweight 2,400-hour TBO and a six-year TBO with Hartzell's warranty through the first overhaul.
