Working in the Cold

Cold working is a method of reinforcing metal that modifies the material’s form without using heat. This method, often referred to as work hardening, permanently alters the crystalline structure of the metal by applying regulated mechanical stress. This increases the metal’s resilience to wear and tear.

Our Structural Repair Team at JAX Aerospace has all the appropriate equipment and knowledge needed to carry out cold working whenever the scope of the repair calls for it. This guarantees your aircraft components’ long-lasting performance and strengthened structural integrity.
