10 Linkages & assemblies for landing gear applications Specialising in the manufacture and assembly of performance critical landing gear components for use on civil and military applications, the company has the experience and the expertise to implement new product introductions in a timely manner, converting concept designs into working reality. Bromford Industries landing gear components are found on the latest aircraft applications, such as the A350 in addition to the established A320, A330 and A340 models. The company also provides landing gear components for defence applications such as the Eurofighter aircraft and has the capability to supply linkages for use in either main or nose landing gear assemblies. Manufactured utilising the latest technology, typical components include torque links, articulated links, retraction links and associated assemblies. In addition to linkages, Bromford Industries has the capability to manufacture and supply smaller machined components and assemblies, kitted to customer requirements. Our success is facilitated both by astute management and an ongoing programme of investment that has seen considerable modernisation of its manufacturing facilities where landing gear products are identified as core to further business growth. 10 Bromford Industries Pride Pace Passion
