Ceramic Coating & Erosion-Resistant Tip Application

This contract involves the application of erosion-resistant ceramic coatings, such as alumina and zirconia, to sensor tips designed to endure extreme environmental conditions. These coatings must protect the sensors from the harsh effects of methane and oxygen combustion and be capable of withstanding transient temperatures exceeding 6,000°F. The work is critical to ensuring sensor durability and performance in high-temperature, erosive environments. Issued by the NASA Shared Services Center, this subcontract falls under the NAICS code 332996, which pertains to fabricated pipe and pipe fitting manufacturing. The solicitation was posted on June 2, 2026, with responses due by June 4, 2026, highlighting a short window for proposal submission. Specific location details and points of contact have not been disclosed, but the contract emphasizes advanced material application to enhance sensor longevity in aerospace or related high-heat applications.
