Recently “The Monty Heat Treat News” completed our list of the “50 Largest Commercial Heat Treaters in North America“, a list which can be found at https://themonty.com/project/the-50-largest-commercial-heat-treaters-in-north-america-2023/ On a regular basis we mention some of these firms, particularly those companies which are new to our list. Kittyhawk Inc., is one of those;

“#31 Kittyhawk Inc.” Kittyhawk is another new entry to our list this year and it is a firm which is 100% Hot Isostic Pressing (exactly the same as Pressure Technologies which also joined our list this year). Kittyhawk made our news section earlier this year when they were acquired by Trive Capital, December 30, 2022. “Founded in 1981, Kittyhawk is a leading provider of Hot Isostatic Pressing (“HIP”) services on the West Coast from its locations in Garden Grove, CA and Canby, OR. The Company is trusted by many of the largest aerospace, defense, and space OEMs to increase the performance and safety of their most iconic platforms. HIP is an integral service that improves the strength and metallurgical properties of casted and additively manufactured parts. Kittyhawk specializes in servicing parts for high-temperature, high-pressure, and high cost of failure applications such as rocket and jet engine componentry.” Hot Isostatic Pressing | Kittyhawk (kittyhawkinc.com)
