B & B HOSE & RUBBER CO., INC

B & B Hose & Rubber Co., Inc. specializes in the design, manufacture, and supply of high-performance rubber and plastic hoses, fluid power fittings, and custom hose assemblies for demanding industrial and military applications. Their technical expertise spans elastomeric hose construction, brass and metal hose fittings, lateral wyes, ball valves, and hose reel systems, with deep proficiency in fluid transfer systems requiring durability under extreme pressure, temperature, and abrasion. The company excels in precision fabrication of hybrid components that integrate rubber elastomers with metallic end fittings, ensuring leak-proof, vibration-resistant connections critical to naval, aviation, and ground vehicle systems. Their ability to produce mission-critical hose assemblies to exacting military specifications, including corrosion-resistant brass terminations and reinforced elastomeric cores, distinguishes them as a trusted supplier of mission-essential fluid handling components. The contractor maintains a consistent and exclusive relationship with the Department of Defense, delivering mission-critical hose and fitting systems across naval, air, and ground platforms. Their work supports maintenance, repair, and overhaul operations for steam plants, hydraulic systems, and fluid power networks aboard ships and in field-deployed environments, indicating deep integration into defense logistics and sustainment supply chains. Industry focus centers on rubber and plastics hose manufacturing (NAICS 326220), fluid power valve and hose fitting production (332912), and miscellaneous fabricated metal products (332999), positioning them as a niche supplier of integrated fluid system components. They serve the defense industrial base with engineered solutions that bridge elastomerics, metallurgy, and mechanical assembly—specializing in non-standard, low-volume, high-reliability parts often required for legacy and modernized military equipment. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Chesapeake, Virginia, B & B Hose & Rubber Co., Inc. operates without federal certifications but leverages its specialized manufacturing capabilities and geographic proximity to major naval and defense hubs to maintain a consistent presence in the DoD supply network.
