DESSER TIRE & RUBBER CO., LLC

DESSER TIRE & RUBBER CO., LLC specializes in the manufacturing of high-performance pneumatic inner tubes and nonmetallic hoses for defense and aerospace applications. Their core capabilities center on precision rubber and elastomeric component fabrication, with deep expertise in tire manufacturing excluding retreading, as well as the production of specialized nonmetallic hoses, adapters, and fabricated metal fittings that interface with pneumatic and hydraulic systems. The contractor demonstrates technical proficiency in material selection for extreme environmental conditions, dimensional tolerancing for military-grade durability, and integration of rubber compounds with metallic end fittings to meet rigorous MIL-SPEC performance standards. Their ability to produce mission-critical components such as inner tubes and hose assemblies under tight lead times reflects a focus on reliability, consistency, and supply chain resilience for defense logistics. The company maintains a consistent and primary relationship with the Department of Defense, supplying mission-essential components for ground vehicles, aircraft, and support equipment. Work includes direct production of inner tubes for tactical tire systems and nonmetallic hoses used in fuel, air, and hydraulic lines, indicating close alignment with military maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations. There is no evidence of engagement with civilian agencies beyond DoD. Industry focus is firmly anchored in tire manufacturing (NAICS 326211) and nonmetallic hose production (NAICS 326220), with complementary work in fabricated metal fittings (NAICS 332996 and 332999) that support fluid transfer systems. This positions the contractor as a niche supplier within the defense industrial base, serving as a Tier 2 or Tier 3 manufacturer for integrated systems requiring rubber-metal hybrid components. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Montebello, California, DESSER TIRE & RUBBER CO., LLC operates without federal certifications but maintains a focused geographic footprint in Southern California’s defense manufacturing corridor, enabling rapid response to DoD supply chain demands.
