Supply of 6" x 4" x 1/2" 6061 Aluminum Rectangle Tube

The contract calls for the supply of four units of 24-foot-long aluminum rectangle tubing with dimensions of 6 inches by 4 inches by 1/2 inch, manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum or a qualifying domestic equivalent. The material must meet specified mechanical and chemical properties associated with the 6061-T6 temper, ensuring suitability for structural or high-performance applications. The place of performance is designated as Oak Ridge, Tennessee, with a zip code of 37830, indicating delivery must be made to that location. The solicitation is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 331318, which corresponds to aluminum tube and pipe manufacturing, suggesting the work falls under industrial fabrication and supply rather than direct government procurement. The posting date for this solicitation is August 4, 2026, with a response deadline of August 11, 2026, at 8:00 PM Eastern Time, leaving a one-week window for interested parties to submit proposals. The contracting organization is ORNL UT-Battelle LLC, a Department of Energy contractor, which implies the end use of the tubing may be tied to federal research, energy, or laboratory operations. There is no set-aside designation specified, meaning the opportunity is open to all eligible contractors without preference for small businesses or other categories. All submissions must comply with the material specifications and delivery requirements outlined in the solicitation, and failure to meet the deadline or quality standards will result in disqualification.
