Vegas Fastener Manufacturing, LLC

Vegas Fastener Manufacturing, LLC, a Las Vegas-based self-certified small disadvantaged business and subsidiary of Power Gen Components, LLC, manufactures precision fasteners — screws, bolts, nuts, and specialized hardware — and delivers them primarily as a prime contractor (61% of recent awards) to the U.S. Department of Defense, with particular focus on Naval Sea Systems Command and Defense Logistics Agency. The company operates under NAICS 332722 (Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing) and competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements, though a significant portion of recent awards carry Total Small Business set-asides reflecting the vendor's small disadvantaged business designation.

Vegas Fastener's customer concentration is heavily Navy-centric. Naval Sea Systems Command dominates with 88 prime awards totaling $1.3 million in combined potential value, representing roughly 69% of the vendor's recent award portfolio by count. Defense Logistics Agency Aviation places 31 awards ($189 thousand combined potential value), Naval Supply Systems Command accounts for 18 awards ($38 thousand), and Naval Air Systems Command holds 15 awards. Across these four customer entities, the vendor covers approximately 85% of recent awards. The top-customers-by-potential-value ranking surfaces an outlier: Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Hardware, which does not appear high in award count, carries six awards totaling $408 thousand in combined potential value — anchored by an Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at up to $250 thousand for standardized fasteners. This concentration reflects Vegas Fastener's positioning as a critical supplier to naval vessel maintenance and logistics operations.

Activity has grown sharply. Awards per year climbed from 10 in 2022 to 49 in 2025, though 2026 year-to-date shows only 13 awards (source date is July 15, 2026). The combined potential value across all 188 awards in the source portfolio is $1.9 million, but combined dollars obligated reach $10.3 million — a 529% ratio indicating that invoiced spend on individual purchase orders frequently exceeds their stated ceiling values, a pattern typical of firm-fixed-price fastener contracts where ceiling values may anchor low and actual delivery costs accumulate across multiple orders.

Vegas Fastener holds task-order authority on five named parent vehicles. The top is Indefinite Delivery Contract N0016724D0004 with ten task orders, followed by Basic Ordering Agreement N0002420G4107 with three task orders. These vehicles route work through Naval Sea Systems Command and Defense Logistics Agency channels. Concrete recent prime awards include a $122.6 thousand firm-fixed-price purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command (January 2025) for socket head cap screws to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, compliant with Federal Specification FF-S-86 and QQ-N-286G; a $51.3 thousand order for specialized K-Monel cap screws (May 2025); and a $45.3 thousand order for K-Monel socket head cap screws also meeting military material and traceability standards (February 2025).

Vegas Fastener operates as a subcontractor to major defense primes on naval and aerospace platforms. Named sub relationships include Sargent Aerospace & Defense (recent socket head cap screw procurements for valve and servo valve assemblies on submarine programs), General Atomics (fastener supply including screws and studs for carrier (CVN 81) EMALS programs and submarine programs), BAE Systems Land & Armaments (VCS FWD assembly material, manufacturing, and delivery), Huntington Ingalls (studs and hardware for CVN 80 and CVN 81 detailed design and construction), Electric Boat Corporation (fastener support for SSBN 826 submarine programs), and The Boeing Company (common aerospace commodities for XLUUV ORCA systems). Sub work spans 39% of the recent award portfolio (73 of 188 awards) and centers on providing high-tolerance fasteners — screws, studs, bolts, and hardware — to support ship construction, submarine programs, and aircraft system integration. The sourcing descriptions across sub awards emphasize "procurement of socket headed cap screws," "procurement of bolts," and "procurement of studs" in support of prime-contract deliverables, underscoring Vegas Fastener's role as a precision fastener supplier within the defense industrial base.

Capability framing from recent awards emphasizes high-tolerance, corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from advanced materials — nickel-copper alloys (K-Monel), 13-8 MO specialty bolts, and certified materials meeting Federal Specification FF-S-86, QQ-N-286G, and equivalent military standards. The vendor manufactures hot-forged, roll-threaded, and machined fastener components to support naval vessels, submarines, aircraft, and weapons systems. Recent PSC distribution shows 91 awards under Screws (PSC 5305), 10 under Nuts and Washers, nine under Bolts (PSC 5306), and four under Studs, reflecting the vendor's core commodity positioning.
