RTI International Metals Inc., Pittsburgh, and  Snecma (Safran) announce that they have signed a long-term agreement under which RTI will provide titanium aluminide intermetallic material for the new CFM International LEAP engine. The LEAP \u2013 Leading Edge Aviation Propulsion \u2013 engine was launched by CFM International in 2008, to power the next generation of single-aisle commercial jets. RTI will be a major supplier of Snecma’s TiAl requirements for the production of LEAP engine low-pressure turbine blades, for which mass production is starting in 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

The TiAl alloy is a new-generation intermetallic with outstanding qualities. Able to withstand very high temperatures, its use will substantially reduce the weight of a low-pressure turbine blade compared with nickel-based alloy materials traditionally used in their production. As part of the new LEAP <\/span>en<\/span>gine<\/span>, this alloy will be used for the first time on a single-aisle commercial jet. It will contribute to the excellent performance of this new engine, which offers 15% lower fuel consumption than the most efficient engines now in service.<\/span><\/p>\n

The CFM56 and LEAP engines are produced and marketed by CFM International, a 50\/50 joint company between Snecma (Safran), France, and GE of the United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
