Purchase Order SPE4A626P1022

The U.S. Department of Defense Aviation division awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order to The Timken Corporation on October 28, 2025, for the procurement of a tapered roller bearing cup component. Valued at $11,001.76 with an ultimate completion date of March 17, 2026, this contract is not set-aside and represents a child award under Timken's existing Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. The work will be performed at Timken's manufacturing facility in Honea Path, South Carolina.

The Timken Corporation, a major supplier of precision bearings and power transmission products headquartered in North Canton, Ohio, is a well-established defense contractor with numerous prime and subcontractor awards from the Department of Defense. This procurement is consistent with Timken's primary role as a critical supplier of specialized bearing components to DLA Aviation, providing high-precision mechanical parts essential for military aviation maintenance and operational readiness. The company's multiple single-award IDCs with DLA Aviation, with ceiling values ranging from $250,000 to nearly $5 million and completion dates extending through 2030, demonstrate the government's long-term reliance on Timken's bearing manufacturing capabilities for defense logistics support.
