Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing

NAICS 333912 (Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing) encompasses the production of various mechanical components and systems related to air compression, vacuum technologies, and fluid transfer equipment. Products include reciprocating compressors, rotary compressors, vacuum pumps, filter assemblies, cylinder components, and specialized repair kits used across industrial, military, and research environments. These components are critical for applications involving pneumatic systems, mechanical engineering, aerospace technologies, and equipment maintenance across multiple sectors.

Federal contract awards in this NAICS category demonstrate significant diversity, with contracts ranging from $1,200 to $590,800 and delivery timelines spanning 30 to 365 days. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime emerges as the predominant contracting agency, consistently awarding small business and service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-aside contracts. Frequently awarded entities include RIX Industries, S I T Corporation, ITL Solutions, and Argo Turboserve Corporation. Most awards target precise mechanical components like compressor pistons, filter elements, vacuum pumps, and repair kits, with delivery destinations primarily at various DLA distribution centers nationwide.

Recent federal contract opportunities mirror the awards' characteristics, predominantly originating from the Defense Logistics Agency and NASA. Solicitations seek specialized equipment such as high-pressure breathing air compressors, reciprocating cylinders, vacuum pumps, and compressor repair kits. Procurement methods include electronic Request for Quote (RFQ) processes, with set-asides predominantly targeting small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and woman-owned small businesses. Performance locations span multiple DLA distribution centers, including sites in San Diego, Puget Sound, Red River, and Warner Robins, with delivery timelines typically ranging from 30 to 650 days after order placement.
