Purchase Order SPE4A626P2521

S & B, Inc., doing business as WG Henschen, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation on October 16, 2025, for the supply of self-locking nuts. This non-set-aside contract carries a ceiling value of $26,075 and requires performance in Valencia, California, with an ultimate completion date of November 20, 2026. The award reflects DLA Aviation's ongoing procurement of precision hardware components critical to military aviation maintenance and logistics operations. WG Henschen, a Scottsdale, Arizona-based master distributor of aerospace and military-grade fasteners registered in SAM.gov since 1999, has established itself as a reliable supplier of specialized hardware to federal defense agencies through its extensive portfolio of prime and subcontract awards.

This purchase order aligns with WG Henschen's core business of supplying consumable fasteners and hardware components to support military aviation platforms. The company's experience as a DLA Aviation contractor, combined with its technical certifications in aerospace-grade hardware, positions it well to meet the stringent specifications required for self-locking nuts used in defense applications. The relatively modest contract value is characteristic of DLA Aviation's transactional purchase orders, which typically supplement the company's larger Indefinite Delivery Contracts that provide sustained supply arrangements for multiple hardware items across military programs.
