Aequs signs supply agreement with Safran for landing gear components

Aequs announced the signing of long-term supply agreements with Safran, a global leader in the aerospace industry for critical components.

The agreements build on Aequs' longstanding engagement with Safran Landing Systems and extend the relationship to Safran Aerosystems, broadening the scope of collaboration. The awards cover the machining of superalloys parts, along with the supply of complex machining coating, and assembly of landing gear components for the Airbus A320, A330, A350 and Boeing 787 programs.

Aequs will leverage its integrated aerospace manufacturing ecosystem and end-to end capabilities across forging, precision machining, special processes, surface treatment, and assembly to manufacture these products. The agreements further strengthen the role of Aequs' Belagavi Aerospace Cluster as an integrated manufacturing base serving global aerospace supply chains. This capability base will be further expanded with the upcoming Aequs Engine Components Ecosystem (AECE) in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, where the manufacture of as all medium and large parts will be taken up.

Today's announcement comes close on the heels of the agreement signed between Aequs and Safran Landing Systems in July 2026 for the supply of fully assembled A320 family aircraft wheels. The wheels agreement is Aequs' first serial production agreement extending beyond 15 years, through 2042, and will see complete aircraft wheels manufactured entirely in India - from Indian-sourced aluminum to final assembly and testing, creating 100% in-country manufacturing value addition.
