CNC Machined Landing Gear Components for Aerospace Teams
Landing gear teams in Bridgeport need parts that are strong, precise, and traceable. We machine 4340 steel, 300M, and titanium 6Al-4V landing gear components with tight bore tolerances. CMM inspection and AS9100D-aligned documentation on every order.
High-Strength Alloys
4340 steel, 300M, and titanium 6Al-4V with mill certs and traceability.
Bore Precision
±0.0005" on critical pin bores and sealing surfaces. CMM verified.
AS9100D Docs
Inspection reports and traceability for landing gear program records.
Fairfield County Aerospace and Helicopter Manufacturing
Bridgeport's aerospace sector is anchored by Sikorsky Aircraft's (Lockheed Martin) nearby Stratford facility — producing UH-60 Black Hawk, CH-53K King Stallion, and S-92 helicopters. The Fairfield County manufacturing corridor machines rotor system components, transmission housings, and structural fittings for rotorcraft programs, while feeder shops support Pratt & Whitney engine and Collins Aerospace avionics production across Connecticut's aerospace supply chain.
RivCut serves Bridgeport aerospace teams with AS9100D-aligned machining, instant quoting, and fixed lead times — Sikorsky rotorcraft components, transmission parts, and structural fittings from Fairfield County.

Safety critical6 Fittings. 10 Days. Zero Concessions.
A Bridgeport landing gear team needed trunnion fittings from 300M steel with tight bore concentricity, cadmium plating prep, and full dimensional verification. Teams near companies like Sikorsky Aircraft (Stratford) trust this kind of precision and documentation rigor.
Every part shipped with complete documentation:
- CMM dimensional report — bore concentricity and true position verified
- Material cert with heat lot and AMS 6417 compliance
- First Article Inspection per AS9102
- Pre-plate surface preparation verification
What Bridgeport Aerospace Buyers Should Know
Ensure your supplier understands Sikorsky/Lockheed Martin rotorcraft quality clauses
Stratford helicopter programs carry unique flight-critical documentation and receiving standards.
Ask about gear and transmission machining capability
Black Hawk and King Stallion programs require ground gears, hardened shafts, and precision bore work.
Verify your shop can meet both rotorcraft (Sikorsky) and engine (Pratt & Whitney) quality flowdowns
Fairfield County suppliers are expected to handle multiple Connecticut prime requirements.
When Your Local Shop Can't Keep Up
When a prime surges volume, local shops push you back in the queue. We give you fixed lead times, instant quoting, and aerospace-grade documentation — every time. Bridgeport's aerospace sector demands it.
Documentation-Ready
Dimensional reports, material certs, and process records ship with every order — no chasing paperwork after delivery.
Full Material Traceability
Every bar ships with mill certs and heat lot numbers. Full chain of custody from raw stock to finished part.
CMM Inspection, Every Part
NIST-traceable CMM verification on every critical dimension before anything ships. No sampling — we inspect every part.
5–7 Day Prototype Turnaround
Most first articles ship in under a week. Rush available for simpler geometries. Confirmed ship date at order.
