AAR Corp. announced an exclusive commercial distribution agreement with Triumph Group on January 5, 2026. Under the deal, AAR will become the sole distributor of Triumph’s actuation product line, which includes more than 100 assemblies and subcomponents that are integral to Boeing and Airbus commercial aircraft.
The agreement brings a broad portfolio of high‑margin actuation components into AAR’s Parts Supply segment. These components—ranging from flight‑control surface actuators to landing‑gear hydraulic units—are critical to the operation of the world’s largest commercial fleets, positioning AAR to serve airlines and MRO customers with faster, more reliable inventory delivery.
Strategically, the partnership expands AAR’s product mix and creates cross‑selling opportunities across its existing distribution network. By leveraging Triumph’s engineering expertise and AAR’s global sales force, the company aims to increase margin‑heavy parts‑supply revenue and support its long‑term growth strategy.
The deal strengthens AAR’s competitive position in the commercial aftermarket, broadening its offerings and reinforcing its role as a key supplier to the aviation industry. The addition of Triumph’s actuation components aligns with AAR’s focus on high‑margin, high‑value parts that drive profitability and customer loyalty.
