Pulling Head and Adapter Component Supply

The contract seeks the supply of precision H9055 pulling heads, H681-series pulling head assemblies ranging from H681-3C to H681-8C, and the 680B46 adapter designed for compatibility with G689 pneumatic riveters. These components are critical for specialized fastening operations and must meet strict quality and performance standards to ensure reliable functionality in demanding aerospace and defense environments. The solicitation is structured as a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside, exclusively open to small businesses as defined by the SBA, reinforcing a commitment to supporting small business participation in defense contracting. The NAICS code 332721 indicates the work falls under the category of Machine Shop, Tool Die, and Jobbing; the place of performance is specified as Ellsworth AFB with a ZIP code of 57706, indicating that delivery and potential on-site integration will occur at this military installation. The contract posting was made on July 23, 2026, with a firm response deadline of July 28, 2026 at 6:00 PM, granting interested small businesses a five-day window to submit proposals. While no point of contact is listed, the solicitation is managed under the Department of Defense through the agency designation FA4690 28 Cons Pkc. The absence of a solicitation number suggests this may be an internal or streamlined procurement method. All submissions must clearly demonstrate capability to supply components that meet exacting technical specifications for use with military-grade G689 riveters, and compliance with federal acquisition requirements for small business set-asides will be a mandatory condition for award.
