Refractory Alloy Specimen Fabrication and Preparation

NASA Shared Services Center is seeking a subcontractor to fabricate and prepare twelve 12x12x3 mm refractory alloy specimens with exacting dimensional tolerances and precisely defined hole geometries. The work includes thorough surface preparation to ensure compatibility with high-temperature coatings and comprehensive metrology verification to confirm all specifications are met. The specimens are intended for advanced thermal protection applications and must adhere to stringent quality and performance standards. The opportunity is posted under NAICS code 332210 for Forging and Stamping and is open for responses until July 28, 2026, with a deadline of 9:00 PM Eastern Time. The contract is structured as a subcontract and does not have a set-aside designation. All work must be performed in accordance with technical requirements aligned with NASA's high-temperature materials research objectives.
