FLOATS & FUEL CELLS, INC

FLOATS & FUEL CELLS INC specializes in the design, development, and manufacturing of mission-critical aerospace components and specialized fluid containment systems for defense platforms. Their core capabilities center on fuel cell integration for military aircraft, including the fabrication of high-integrity fuel bladders and auxiliary power systems compliant with stringent military specifications. The company demonstrates deep technical proficiency in rubber compound engineering for fuel containment, precision molding of elastomeric components, and the integration of fuel delivery systems into legacy and modern airframes such as the F-16 and C-130. Their work in aircraft fuel system components reflects a strong focus on safety-critical performance under extreme environmental and operational conditions, with an emphasis on leak-proof sealing, chemical resistance, and long-term durability in combat environments. The contractor has consistently delivered solutions to the Department of Defense, primarily supporting air mobility and fighter aircraft programs through the production of specialized fuel system hardware. Their engagements reflect a trusted partnership in sustaining critical aviation logistics, particularly in the realm of in-flight refueling infrastructure and auxiliary power unit integration. Industry focus is anchored in NAICS 336413, encompassing the manufacturing of aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment, with additional expertise in rubber product manufacturing for defense applications. This positions the company as a niche supplier of mission-specific, non-standardized components that require tight tolerances and military-grade material certifications. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Memphis, Tennessee, FLOATS & FUEL CELLS INC operates without federal certifications but maintains a focused presence in the defense aerospace supply chain. Their geographic location supports proximity to key DoD maintenance and logistics hubs, enabling responsive delivery and technical support for fielded systems.
