Metaltek International, Inc.

Metaltek International, Inc., operating through its Wisconsin Centrifugal Division and doing business as Metaltek International Corp, manufactures precision metal castings and bearing components for naval and defense applications as a small business prime contractor (84% of recent awards) and subcontractor on major shipbuilding programs. The company competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides; recent awards across Naval Sea Systems Command, Defense Logistics Agency, and other defense agencies carry set-aside designations in roughly 55% of prime contracts, with the remainder competed full-and-open or sole-source.

Metaltek's core capability portfolio centers on high-temperature and corrosion-resistant castings for maritime propulsion and structural applications. The Wisconsin Centrifugal Division in Vernon, Wisconsin manufactures bearing sleeves, shaft sleeves (including Level 1 SUBSAFE components for nuclear submarines), friction drums, propeller components, rudder and grounding sleeves, and precision-machined assemblies in materials including copper-nickel 70/30 alloy, nickel-chromium-molybdenum-cobalt, and stainless steel. Representative prime work includes a $1.542 million Defense Logistics Agency delivery order for friction drums awarded March 10, 2026 (Total Small Business set-aside, ultimate completion October 6, 2026); a $213,555 Naval Supply Systems Command purchase order for copper-nickel bearing journal sleeves awarded March 30, 2026 (Total Small Business set-aside, completion July 21, 2026); and a $1.164 million Naval Sea Systems Command purchase order for Level 1 shaft sleeves awarded June 5, 2022 (no set-aside, completion August 31, 2023). A $12 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for friction drums was awarded by Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment on September 25, 2025, with performance through September 24, 2030, establishing a framework for estimated annual procurement of up to 70 units at fixed price with economic price adjustment.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to Navy and defense logistics platforms. Naval Sea Systems Command accounts for 219 of the top-five customer agencies' combined 317 awards (covering 82% of all awards) and anchors the potential-value rankings at $37.7 million combined potential value. Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment ranks second in dollars at $20.2 million across 16 awards, while DLA Aviation (42 awards, $8 million) and Naval Supply Systems Command (18 awards, $856 thousand) round out the dollar concentration. The revenue rankings track tightly; Naval Sea Systems Command dominates both volume and value, indicating deep operational reliance rather than transactional diversity.

Metaltek holds positions on multiple parent vehicles. The Indefinite Delivery Contract N0040606D6009 carries 24 task orders valued at $2.1 million combined potential; SPE8EE25D5001 (an Indefinite Delivery Contract) holds 4 task orders at $5.6 million combined potential; and W58RGZ21D0027 carries 7 task orders. Seaport Next Generation and INR03CP300984 (2 task orders, $490 thousand) round out the named vehicles.

Activity has grown materially year over year — 21 awards in 2022 to 53 in 2024 — before moderating to 36 in 2025 and 9 year-to-date in 2026. Nine awards (combined potential value $4.8 million) face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure concentrated on recurring Defense Logistics Agency and Naval Sea Systems Command requirements for friction drums, bearing sleeves, and shaft sleeves.

Metaltek subcontracts to major defense shipbuilders and aerospace contractors. Electric Boat Corporation receives recurring sub-awards for SSN 804 submarine construction, SSBN 826 streamlined changes, and weapon cradle components (multiple 2022–2025 awards); Huntington Ingalls Inc. receives castings and bearing sleeves for DDG 51-class ship construction and CVN 75/CVN 80 carrier recapitalization (awards through September 2025); and Honeywell International receives precision castings for T55 helicopter engine housings and electronic control unit installations (award dates through November 2025). Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical, General Atomics, Rolls-Royce Marine North America, Bird-Johnson Propeller Company, and L3 Technologies round out the sub-prime footprint.

The company's subsidiary structure includes The Carondelet Foundry Corporation, Sandusky International Inc., and two Metaltek International entities, all registered as for-profit manufacturers. Recent activity (2025–2026) spans friction drums, bearing sleeves, casting work for carrier overhaul, and submarine-class components, confirming sustained operational focus on precision metal casting for naval propulsion, structural, and materials-handling applications under both prime and sub posture.
