The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 33142 encompasses Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, and Alloying, representing a specialized manufacturing sector focused on processing copper and copper alloys into various forms. This category involves transforming raw copper materials into sheets, bars, tubes, wires, and other specialized configurations through precise industrial processes. The products produced are critical components for numerous industries, including aerospace, defense, electronics, and advanced manufacturing technologies.

Federal contract awards in this NAICS category demonstrate a strong focus on defense and military logistics procurement. The opportunities predominantly involve the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and Department of the Navy, with contract values ranging from modest quantities of specialized tubing and metal components to more extensive procurement efforts. Most solicitations are set aside for small businesses, particularly service-disabled veteran-owned and total small business categories. Typical places of performance include military distribution centers across the United States, with notable locations such as Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, San Diego, and various Naval shipyards.

Recent federal contract opportunities within this NAICS code reveal a diverse range of technical requirements for copper and copper alloy products. Solicitations include requests for specialized materials like Beryl Copper, nickel-copper alloy tubes, electrical wires, metal tube assemblies, and anti-ice tubes. These opportunities consistently require precise technical specifications, often referencing military standards such as ASTM and MIL specifications. Procurement agencies, primarily the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation and Naval Supply Systems Command, seek high-precision components for critical military infrastructure, aerospace, and maintenance applications, with delivery timelines typically ranging from 45 to 548 days after order.
