Manufacture and Supply of MIL-Spec Aluminum Alloy Tube-to-Hose Elbow Fitting

The contract mandates the manufacture and delivery of four precision aluminum alloy tube-to-hose elbow fittings, each designed to a 90-degree configuration for use in military-grade fluid connection systems. These fittings must strictly adhere to established military specifications covering material composition, dimensional tolerances, and Class 3 thread quality to ensure reliability under demanding operational conditions. The aluminum alloy used must meet defined standards for strength, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with fluid systems typically found in defense applications. Each unit requires rigorous quality control to ensure consistency and compliance with performance expectations in high-pressure and vibration-prone environments. All deliverables are to be performed at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, with a final delivery deadline aligned to the contract’s response deadline of July 30, 2026. The procurement is structured as a subcontract under the NAICS code 332994, indicating it falls within miscellaneous fabricated metal product manufacturing, and is managed by the Fluid Handling Division of the Department of Defense. While no set-aside provisions or specific small business preferences are indicated, the requirement emphasizes adherence to federal military standards over commercial alternatives, ensuring interoperability and safety across defense platforms. The solicitation is publicly accessible via the DIBBS portal for qualified suppliers to review and respond prior to the closing date.
