About Nelson Stud Welding, Inc.

Nelson Stud Welding, Inc., a manufacturer of welding studs, stud welding equipment, and industrial fasteners, operates as a prime contractor under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designation, delivering specialized fastening components and welding systems to the U.S. Navy. The company is a subsidiary of Stanley Black & Decker, Inc., and is headquartered in Elyria, Ohio, competing without SBA certifications across NAICS 332618 (Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing) and related welding-equipment categories.

Nelson's federal footprint is narrow and highly concentrated. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) accounts for 253 of 319 total prime awards (79% of recent awards) and $1.1 million of $1.4 million in combined potential value (79% by dollars). Ranking by customer concentration, the top five agencies represent 90% of awards, led by NAVSEA ($1.1 million), followed by the U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces (16 awards, $43 thousand), the U.S. Coast Guard (7 awards, $42 thousand), Military Sealift Command (6 awards, $36 thousand), and the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (5 awards, $34 thousand). The top two customer rankings track identically — NAVSEA dominates by both volume and dollars. Nelson competes on the open market against all bidders; the single set-aside designation in recent awards (two Total Small Business awards) represents outliers rather than posture.

Recent award work is representative of Nelson's core business: corrosion-resistant steel welding studs in MIL-S-24149 specification, grounding studs, stud welding machines with standard valve packages and accessories, and associated shipping. Named examples include a $155,694 firm-fixed-price purchase order from NAVSEA (Dec 2022) for 3/8-inch stud collars with ultimate completion in September 2023; a $20,239 order from U.S. Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic Fleet) for a stud welding machine, standard valve package, and accessories (Mar 2024); a $13,438.60 NAVSEA order for 1.375-inch corrosion-resistant steel studs (Sep 2022); and a $11,840 U.S. Coast Guard purchase order for a 120 VAC stud welder for repair and fabrication use in Ketchikan (Sep 2025). All awards are firm-fixed-price purchase orders issued by federal contracting officers; Nelson holds no parent vehicles or IDIQs.

Activity has declined notably from 22 awards in 2022 to 12 in 2024 and 14 in 2025, with only 2 awards recorded as of the source snapshot date (Jan 2026), though this reflects recent-award reporting lag rather than final-year performance. The combined potential value of $1.4 million against combined obligated dollars of $1.9 million (141%) indicates that invoiced work on older purchase orders has exceeded the original ceiling values, a characteristic of Nelson's transactional purchase-order footprint rather than longer-term contract vehicles. Nelson operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no sub-award history appears in the source.

Nelson competes in full-and-open Navy supply markets without IDIQs, BPAs, or GSA Schedules; its federal revenue stream is driven entirely by discrete purchase orders issued directly by NAVSEA and other Navy activities for welding studs, welding machines, and grounding components. The company's $1.4 million combined potential value across 319 awards translates to a median award size under $4,500, consistent with Navy fast-turn procurement for specialized fastening materials. As a Stanley Black & Decker subsidiary, Nelson inherits the parent's manufacturing scale and supply-chain integration but operates independently in federal markets without leveraging the parent's broader contracting footprint.
