About the company
Carbide Tools For Industry, Inc., doing business as Abrasives & Tools, is a Santa Ana, California-based manufacturer of precision industrial cutting tools and abrasives that sells rotary files, milling end cutters, and abrasive wheels to the Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor under firm fixed-price purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts. The company is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business and veteran-owned enterprise, competing predominantly full-and-open (no set-aside designation on 374 of 375 recent awards) with one total small business set-aside IDC of $250,000.
Carbide Tools For Industry has built a single-customer federal footprint concentrated almost entirely within the DLA ecosystem. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division accounts for 313 awards and $990,000 in combined potential value, while DLA Land and Maritime holds 57 awards and $1.5 million in combined potential value — together representing 100% of the vendor's tracked prime awards across five DLA subdivisions. The company holds three active indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each valued at $250,000 and designated as total small business set-asides, which enable the agency to place recurring orders for rotary files by National Stock Number on an as-needed basis to support military depots domestically and overseas.
Recent representative work includes a $13,005 total small business set-aside purchase order in March 2024 for milling end cutters; a $10,980.58 full-and-open purchase order in March 2025 for rotary files across multiple NSNs; and a $10,845.40 full-and-open order in December 2025 for rotary files from DLA Land and Maritime. Performance occurs consistently at the vendor's Santa Ana facility, with typical delivery windows of one to three months. All work is performed in-house with no identified subcontractors across the award portfolio.
Activity has grown from 27 awards in 2022 to a peak of 57 in 2024, followed by 50 in 2025 and 14 through mid-2026 (a partial-year snapshot). The combined potential value across 375 awards totals $2.5 million, with $1.2 million (48%) obligated to date. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal — one award with potential value of $9,000 reaching completion.
NAICS concentration is tight: 373 of 375 awards fall under Cutting Tool and Machine Tool Accessory Manufacturing (code 332212), with 2 awards in Saw Blade and Handtool Manufacturing. PSC coding aligns — 353 awards carry PSC Cutting Tools For Machine Tools, and 22 carry Machine Tool Accessories. The vendor's federal profile is functionally a supply contract to a single customer organization for a narrow commodity class, with no government-wide vehicles, subcontracting relationships, or multi-agency diversification reflected in the source data.
