Align Aerospace (formerly Anixter Aerospace Hardware) isn't deploying any troops, just scads of aircraft fasteners. The company distributes threaded fasteners for Airbus, Boeing, and military planes and related components such as bolts, nuts, screws, and studs. In addition to distribution services, the company also offers testing, supply chain management, inventory management, kitting, assembly, and related services. Its customers are primarily aerospace and military manufacturers. The company has distribution hubs in Canada, France, and the US and a sales office in the UK. Former parent Anixter International sold the company to investment firm Greenbriar Equity Group in 2011.
