Nassau Tool Works, Inc.

Nassau Tool Works, Inc., a small business manufacturer of precision aerospace components based in Bay Shore, New York, serves as a prime contractor supplying landing gear parts, shock strut cylinders, bushings, sleeves, and related aircraft hardware to the Department of Defense — almost exclusively through competitive procurements without set-aside designation, though a minority of awards carry total small business set-asides.

Nassau Tool Works is a division of Air Industries Group, Inc., a parent manufacturer of aircraft components and assemblies. The company operates as a for-profit corporation and competes across a broad portfolio of 1,036 federal awards spanning four decades, with recent activity showing 14 awards in 2025 and four awards in the first quarter of 2026. The combined potential value of active awards stands at $104 million, though obligated dollars have reached $141.3 million—indicating strong execution against contract ceilings. Nassau Tool Works holds two active single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation valued at $250,000 (awarded January 2024, running through January 2029) and $249,999.99 (awarded January 2025, running through January 2026), both authorizing delivery orders for aircraft components including bushings, sleeves, landing gear parts, actuators, pistons, and related aerospace hardware.

Customer concentration is acute and defense-dominated. The top five funding agencies account for 82% of recent awards by count, led by Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (458 awards, $43.6 million combined potential value), followed by Naval Supply Systems Command (93 awards, $29.3 million), Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (130 awards, $10.7 million), the Air Force Materiel Command Ogden Air Logistics Complex (52 awards, $9.9 million), and Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment (56 awards, $2.8 million). The potential-value ranking tracks award count closely—DLA Aviation dominates both—indicating consistent order sizing across the portfolio rather than a small number of anchor awards. The company's award portfolio is tightly bounded to DLA's aviation, land-and-maritime, and supply-focused categories, with no civilian agency presence and minimal exposure outside the DoD supply chain. Recent representative prime awards include a $471,816 definitive contract from DLA Aviation in June 2024 for F-16 trunnion struts under total small business set-aside; a $1,027,500 definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command in September 2024 for arm assembly and torque components; a $328,800 definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command in December 2024 for arm assemblies; a $203,671 purchase order from the Air Force Ogden Air Logistics Complex in April 2024 for F-16 landing gear drag braces under total small business set-aside; and a $186,250 purchase order from DLA Aviation in February 2026 for piston rods under total small business set-aside.

The top five parent vehicles are single-award IDCs: SPRPA114D006U carries 46 task orders valued at $8.9 million, SPM74003D7687 carries 24 task orders for $454 thousand, N0038301D013H carries 15 task orders, SP074003D7687 carries 15 task orders, and SPE4A615D0088 carries 14 task orders for $224 thousand. These vehicles are specialized DLA supply-chain IDCs rather than government-wide acquisition contracts, reflecting Nassau Tool Works' posture as a sole-source or highly preferred supplier to specific Defense Logistics Agency components within rigid inventory replenishment and component-repair networks. The company places minimal reliance on full-and-open competitive vehicles; its presence on parent IDCs is anchored to DLA single-award relationships rather than participation in multi-award contract pools.

Activity has been steady at roughly seven to fourteen awards per year over the past five years, with modest growth from eight awards in 2022 to fourteen in 2025. Fourteen awards carrying combined potential value of $2.9 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. Nassau Tool Works operates almost entirely as a prime contractor—1,033 of 1,036 awards (100% of prime awards) are primes—with only three subcontract positions on record: a September 2025 sub to The Boeing Company for PBL material and aerospace support, and two January 2025 subs to Bell Boeing Joint Project Office for CMV-22 production and long-lead-time aerospace items. The subcontract footprint is negligible and does not represent a material business line.

The company's capability portfolio is hyperspecialized and bounded to military aircraft component manufacturing. NAICS concentration is extreme: 466 of the company's awards (45% of the portfolio) fall under NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), with secondary NAICS categories in aircraft manufacturing, mechanical power transmission equipment, and hardware manufacturing. PSC concentration is even sharper: 535 awards (52% of the portfolio) are classified under PSC Aircraft Landing Gear Components, reflecting the company's dominance as a DLA supplier of landing gear assemblies, struts, cylinders, braces, axles, and related shock-absorption and suspension hardware for rotary-wing and fixed-wing military aircraft. The next-largest PSC categories—miscellaneous power transmission equipment (116 awards), hydraulic and de-icing system components (85 awards), and bearings (74 awards)—are all subordinate components within the same landing-gear and aircraft-systems ecosystem. There is no diversification into IT services, logistics, engineering consulting, or non-aerospace manufacturing; Nassau Tool Works' federal footprint is a pure-play aerospace components supplier to the military supply chain.
