About Arcet Equipment Co

Arcet Equipment Co, operating through its Arc3 Gases Division and doing business as Arcet, is a multi-generation family-owned industrial gas and welding supplies company headquartered in Dunn, North Carolina. The entity, registered in SAM.gov since October 3, 2006, serves as a small business federal contractor specializing in the provision of industrial gases, welding equipment, welding consumables, and related services to support defense operations and military infrastructure maintenance. As a child entity of Arc3 Gases, Inc., Arcet Equipment Co has established itself as a reliable supplier to the U.S. Department of Defense, with particular expertise in supporting naval shipyard operations, ship construction, maintenance, and repair activities.

Arcet Equipment Co has demonstrated consistent federal contracting performance across a diverse portfolio of industrial gas and welding supply deliveries. The company's primary customer has been the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), which has awarded the majority of its purchase orders for liquid nitrogen services, welding electrodes, welding wire, and specialty gases delivered primarily to Norfolk Naval Base and Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, Virginia. Representative contract awards include a $23,750 liquid nitrogen delivery contract (November 2023, total small business set-aside), a $18,800 liquid nitrogen and service contract (January 2023, total small business set-aside), multiple welding electrode and welding wire procurements valued between $2,560 and $14,550 (February 2022 through February 2022, with some designated as total small business set-asides), and numerous liquid nitrogen service contracts ranging from $2,350 to $9,968 across multiple fiscal years. Beyond NAVSEA, Arcet Equipment Co has received federal contract awards from the Defense Health Agency for carbon dioxide maintenance and replenishment services, the U.S. Coast Guard for welding table procurement ($11,256, March 2021), and the Defense Logistics Agency Energy division. The company has also served as a subcontractor to Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc., performing work identified as Arc3 Gases North (September 2021). Additionally, Arcet Equipment Co was awarded a $100,000 firm fixed-price miscellaneous services delivery order contract by the Department of Defense (July 2025, running through September 2029) and a $240 liquid nitrogen purchase order (March 2025), both without set-aside designations.

Arcet Equipment Co holds one active Indefinite Delivery Contract, a single-award indefinite delivery vehicle awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy on October 1, 2024, with a ceiling value of $124,370 and a period of performance extending through September 30, 2029. This contract requires Arcet Equipment Co to provide liquid nitrogen and associated delivery services to Norfolk Naval Base, Virginia and Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, Virginia, with the contractor responsible for converting liquid nitrogen into gaseous nitrogen and charging it to ships' nitrogen banks. The contract specifies an estimated annual delivery requirement of 20,000 gallons per year to Norfolk Naval Base and 15,000 gallons per year to Norfolk Naval Shipyard. The contract is classified under NAICS code 325120 (Industrial Gas Manufacturing) and PSC code 6830-P (Gases: Compressed and Liquefied), and carries no set-aside designation. This IDV represents a significant expansion of Arcet Equipment Co's established relationship with naval facilities and underscores the company's critical role in supporting liquid nitrogen logistics across the Department of Defense's primary naval shipyard operations on the Virginia Peninsula.
