Acron Aviation Acquires Exclusive License and Key Related Assets for Honeywell’s Thermal Switches Product Line

21st Oct 2025

USA – Acron Aviation is proud to announce the acquisition of Honeywell’s Thermal Switches Product Line. This major milestone marks Acron Aviation’s second acquisition in six months, since its launch as a standalone company in March 2025. This strategic purchase reinforces Acron Aviation’s commitment to supporting the global aviation and space industries with high-reliability components tailored to meet the rigorous demands of OEMs, military and civil aircraft operators.

Alan Crawford, Chief Executive Officer, Acron Aviation said: “This acquisition marks a pivotal step in our journey. The mechanical thermal switch is more than a legacy product, it’s a trusted, high-performance component essential to aircraft reliability and safety.” Crawford continued, “we’re proud to add this complementary product line to our portfolio and expand our support to OEMs and operators with precision-engineered solutions that don’t compromise on performance.”

The thermal switch is a snap-acting device that activates or interrupts an electrical current in response to temperature changes. It remains the industry standard for high-reliability thermal control applications and is engineered with variant configurations to support a wide operating range from -110°F to 700°F. The switch is customizable to exacting specifications, making it a critical component across numerous air and space platforms.

Customers rely on thermal switches for engine and environmental system temperature control, safety-critical circuit protection and customized configurations that match fleet-specific operating conditions.

The acquisition will see Acron Aviation take on responsibility for manufacturing, global distribution and sales of thermal switches under a strategic license agreement and supports the company’s ambitious growth plans as a top-tier supplier to the aerospace industry.
