Coupling, tube

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is seeking to procure tube couplings under NSN 4730002792723 through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process. The procurement consists of three line items totaling 173 units of tube couplings, with deliveries required to DLA Distribution San Diego within 98 days after date of order. Six approved sources are specified for this procurement, including part numbers from manufacturers such as AP442ATP16, AP442T16, GF503BH16A, LE273-0030-0006, MR54047T-16, and 7M523T16. The solicitation emphasizes that all responsible sources may submit quotes, which must be submitted electronically by the September 2, 2025 deadline. Hard copies of the solicitation are not available, and no additional specifications, plans, or drawings will be provided beyond what is included in the electronic RFQ.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to qualified small business entities. The procurement breaks down into three specific quantities: 9 units for line item 0001, 44 units for line item 0002, and 120 units for line item 0003, all requiring delivery to the same DLA Distribution facility in San Diego. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are mentioned in the solicitation notice, nor are any specific budget ranges or award values disclosed. The procurement falls under NAICS code 332912 for Fluid Power Valve and Hose Fitting Manufacturing and PSC category 47 for Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings. All deliveries are scheduled for the same 98-day timeframe, suggesting this is likely a stock replenishment requirement for the DLA distribution center's inventory management system.
