About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking to procure five Quick Disconnect Couplers, specifically Part # AE85942U or an equivalent product. This pre-solicitation notice indicates that a formal Request for Quote (RFQ) will be posted at a future date, and no quotes will be accepted until that RFQ is officially released. The contract will be awarded on a full and open competition basis using a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) structure. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at sam.gov to be eligible for award consideration. For non-part number items, vendors are required to submit detailed technical documentation including dimensional specifications, assembly details, and compliance information in acceptable formats such as PDF or CAD files prior to any manufacturing or delivery. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on October 20, 2025, with a due date of October 25, 2025, providing potential vendors a five-day window to prepare for the forthcoming RFQ.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is open to all qualified contractors meeting the specified requirements. The NAICS classification is 332912 (Fluid Power Valve and Hose Fitting Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and the PSC category is 4820 (Valves, Nonpowered). The specific quick disconnect couplers required feature 4-inch valved unisex coupling with manual ball valve interlock, a pressure tight dust cap, and must meet performance specifications including a maximum pressure drop of 0.5 psi, minimum operating pressure of 150 psi, minimum burst pressure of 450 psi, and operating temperatures between 30-100 degrees Fahrenheit with 3-inch female NPT inlet. While no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the relatively modest quantity of five units suggests this is a maintenance or replacement procurement rather than a large-scale acquisition. The formal RFQ posting will provide additional details regarding pricing expectations, delivery timelines, and any other specific contractual terms.
