According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Aircraft Braking Systems market size was valued at US$ 8681 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 12334 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.1% during review period.
In 2025, global production of aircraft braking systems reached 203,000 units, with an average selling price of US$41,560 per unit. An aircraft braking system is a comprehensive electromechanical-hydraulic subsystem used by aircraft during landing, refuse-to-takeoff (RTO), and taxiing to convert kinetic energy into heat energy and achieve deceleration/stopping and directional stability. It consists of wheel brake assemblies, brake actuation and hydraulic/electric actuation devices, brake control and anti-skid systems, sensors and health monitoring/wear indicators, etc. It is a critical safety system related to ATA 32 (landing gear), and its main function is to significantly shorten landing distance and time, ensuring safe takeoff and landing on runways of limited length. Its applications cover both civil and military aviation. The upstream of the industry chain includes carbon/carbon composite materials and friction materials, forgings and high-temperature alloys, seals and hydraulic components, power electronics and automotive-grade control chips/sensors; the midstream consists of system manufacturers with airworthiness certification and material process barriers; and the downstream consists of aircraft manufacturers. Braking systems are typical airborne components with "high certification barriers + materials/processes + servitization," with a gross profit margin of approximately 45-60%.
The global market exhibits an oligopolistic structure, primarily dominated by European and American giants. North America and Europe are traditionally strong regions, holding core positions in main manufacturers, Tier 1 suppliers, and MRO networks. They boast major OEMs and braking system suppliers, possessing leading technology and a mature market. The Asia-Pacific region is experiencing rapid growth, benefiting from the rapid increase in air traffic and fleet expansion in countries like China and India, resulting in strong market demand. Localization and cost optimization are driving growth in some parts and maintenance, but barriers to entry for high-end carbon brake materials and airworthiness certification maintain market concentration among leading players. Future key technological development trends include all-electric braking (all-electric drive) technology, material upgrades, intelligent and integrated systems, and high-reliability (redundancy) designs.
