Ball clutch assembl

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is soliciting quotes for a Ball Clutch Assembly (NSN 1680011766352) through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) process. This procurement falls under the Aerospace Craft Components and Accessories category (PSC 16) and Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (NAICS 336413). All responsible sources are eligible to submit quotes for consideration, and submissions must be made electronically; hard copies of the solicitation are not available, nor are specifications, plans, or drawings provided separately. The solicitation was posted on December 21, 2025, with a response deadline of December 29, 2025. Quotes will be evaluated on a timely receipt basis, with preference given to the approved source NSN 8526-66 (vendor code 00268), though this does not preclude consideration of other qualified suppliers.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation and requires delivery of five units (5 EA) to the DLA Distribution Depot at Hill within 169 days of order (ADO). No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the solicitation notice. The straightforward nature of this requirement—a relatively small quantity of a specific aerospace component—suggests a routine parts replenishment action typical of DLA Aviation's supply chain operations. Interested contractors should note that all documentation and submission requirements are contained within the RFQ link provided, making timely electronic submission the critical success factor for bid consideration.
