Nylon insert NC lock nut

CAL FIRE awarded a non-information technology goods contract valued at $863 to TIFCO Industries Inc. on February 15, 2026, under contract number 0000905922. The contract covers the supply of industrial fasteners and tools comprising twenty line items, each ordered in single-unit quantities. The procured items include stainless steel hardware components such as lock nuts, hex nuts, lock washers, and flat washers; fastening elements including clevis pins, speed nut fasteners, and thread-cutting screws; and precision tooling such as jobber drill bits, drill sets, counterbores, and cutoff wheels. Notable higher-value items include a TIFALLOY II jobber drill set priced at $359.95 and a Gemini cutoff wheel at $100.62.

The contract represents a low-dollar procurement of miscellaneous maintenance and repair supplies for California state operations. No specific place of performance, period of performance, or annual value information is documented in the award record. The contract type designation as non-information technology goods indicates the commodities are tangible physical products rather than technology services or software solutions. The single-unit quantities and diverse product mix suggest this award may represent either emergency procurement or replenishment of critical operational equipment for CAL FIRE's firefighting and disaster response capabilities.
