LOX Cleaning and Passivation Services

The contract pertains to specialized cleaning, passivation, and verification services for valves to ensure compatibility with liquid oxygen and to mitigate risks of contamination or combustion. The work involves meticulous procedures to eliminate particulates, oils, and other reactive residues that could compromise safety in high-oxygen environments, following stringent industry and government standards for LOX systems. All processes must be documented and validated to confirm that components meet required purity levels and are free from potential ignition sources. The services are being performed under a subcontract arrangement for NASA Stennis Space Center, with the place of performance located in Oakville. The North American Industry Classification System code 332999 indicates the work falls under other miscellaneous fabricated metal product manufacturing, reflecting the precision and custom nature of the valve treatment processes. The contract was posted on July 6, 2026, and is intended to support critical propulsion or life support systems where oxygen compatibility and system integrity are non-negotiable for mission safety and operational reliability.
