Nut , tube coupling

The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime is soliciting quotes for tube coupling nuts under National Stock Number 4730000092133 through a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The procurement seeks 89 units of this fabricated pipe fitting component, with all responsible sources eligible to submit bids. Quotes must be submitted electronically, and the solicitation does not include specifications, plans, or drawings, requiring bidders to reference the approved source designation 14798 D10006J12 for product details. The evaluation criteria emphasize timely receipt of quotes, as only electronically submitted proposals received by the deadline will be considered. The critical deadline for submission is January 23, 2026, providing a window of 11 days from the posting date of January 12, 2026.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, limiting competition to small business concerns. The approved source reference indicates an incumbent or preferred supplier exists; however, the solicitation explicitly states that all responsible sources may compete if quotes are timely received. Delivery is required to the DLA Distribution Depot Hill within 99 days after award. The contract value is not specified in the notice, though the relatively modest quantity of 89 units suggests a lower-dollar procurement. The goods fall under NAICS code 332996 (Fabricated Pipe and Pipe Fitting Manufacturing) and PSC category 47 (Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings), indicating this is a specialized industrial procurement typical of defense logistics supply chain operations.
