What this NAICS covers

NAICS 332117 covers manufacturing metal components from metal powders using compacting, sintering, infiltration, machining, and heat treatment to produce near-net-shape parts such as gears, bushings, and structural components produced by powder metallurgy processes.

Federal opportunities under 332117 typically involve batch production to meet drawing tolerances, material certifications, non-destructive and metallurgical testing, lot traceability, qualified supplier controls, and small-to-medium production runs for mission-critical mechanical assemblies.

FAQ

What work fits NAICS 332117?
  • Sintered steel gears and pinions produced to drawing tolerances with post-sinter machining and heat treatment for mechanical assemblies.
  • Self-lubricating bronze bushings and bearings manufactured by pressing, sintering, and impregnation with porosity control and dimensional finishing.
  • Near-net-shape structural components produced by hot isostatic pressing or powder forging followed by finish machining to specified mechanical properties.
  • Small-to-medium production lots of powdered-metal fasteners and studs supplied with lot-level traceability and packaged for assembly lines.
When is NAICS 332117 a weak fit?
  • Foundry or metal casting work where molten metal pouring and mold casting replace powder pressing and sintering, lacking powder metallurgy processing steps.
  • Sheet metal fabrication and stamping that form parts from wrought sheet or plate without powder blending, compacting, or sintering operations.
  • Metal additive manufacturing that uses layerwise fusion or directed energy deposition rather than compacting and sintering of powder feedstock, so the process and qualification requirements differ.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 332117?
  • Drawings and statement of work specify sintered parts, infiltration, or powder compaction processes and close dimensional tolerances.
  • Evaluation criteria require lot-level material certifications, metallurgical microstructure reports, or non-destructive testing on sintered components.
  • Contract deliverables list retained sample protocols, traceability from powder lot to finished part, and supplier process control documentation for press-sinter operations.
