Excellence in the service of performance
Always lighter and more resistant, the parts used in the motorsports field are subject to extreme stresses.
Buoyed by its long-standing experience in critical aeronautical applications, Aubert & Duval creates and supplies a wide range of high-performance steels and alloys, as well as metal powders for additive manufacturing, all meeting the highly technical requirements of competition: Formula 1, WRC, Endurance, IndyCar, MotoGP, etc.
In order to meet the extremely important need for reactivity in motorsports, Aubert & Duval sells from stock, thus allowing for making the desired material or product available within a very short lead time.

Innovate to win
In close collaboration with the main teams, Aubert & Duval has a team dedicated to motorsports and is constantly developing new metallurgic solutions to meet their current needs and anticipate their future challenges.

Among our leading shades

• MLX®17: this structurally hardened stainless steel is perfectly suited to the fixing systems, thanks to its remarkable mechanical properties: good mechanical resistance, excellent resistance to corrosion and fatigue.
• GKP®: this nitriding grade, created using VIM/VAR, offers good quenchability as well as high properties in terms of resilience and fatigue limit. Associated with a deep gas nitriding process, it is recognized as having the best resistance to fatigue for mechanical parts such as crankshafts.
• NC310YW : this very high-strength steel is used for parts subject to high fatigue stresses, such as torsion bars, gears and transmission shafts.
• FADH(W) : cemented steel, used in mechanical parts exposed to the highest stresses and wear conditions.
