Bolt, shear

The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation is procuring 500 units of shear bolts under NSN 5306017254313 through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process. This procurement involves a source-controlled drawing item with an approved source designation of 81205 BACB30LE6K22X, meaning the bolts must meet specific technical drawing requirements available through the solicitation. The items must be delivered to DLA Distribution facility W1A8 within 121 days after date of order (ADO). All responsible sources may submit quotes for consideration, but submissions must be made electronically as hard copies are not available. The solicitation was posted on August 27, 2025, with quotes due by September 4, 2025, providing vendors with a brief eight-day response window.

This opportunity carries no set-aside designation, making it open to all qualified contractors regardless of socioeconomic status. The solicitation does not specify any incumbent contractors or provide budget estimates for the procurement. The 500-unit quantity represents the total requirement for these specialized shear bolts, which fall under NAICS code 332722 for Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing. Performance will involve manufacturing or supplying the bolts to meet the source-controlled specifications and delivering them to the designated DLA Distribution facility. The 121-day delivery timeline suggests this is not an urgent requirement, allowing adequate time for production and delivery of the specialized hardware components.
