What this NAICS covers
NAICS 331314 covers secondary smelting and alloying of aluminum, including recycling scrap aluminum into molten metal, refining, adjusting alloy chemistry, and casting ingots, billets, or other primary forms for downstream manufacturing.
Federal opportunities under 331314 typically involve contracts to provide recycled aluminum ingots or billets produced by secondary smelting and alloy adjustment, accompanied by melt analysis, certificates of chemical composition, and traceability of scrap feedstock sources.

FAQ
What work fits NAICS 331314?
- Processing collected aluminum scrap into recycled aluminum ingots with specified alloy designations and certificate of analysis for each lot.
- Alloying and casting aluminum billets to meet specified metallurgical properties for downstream fabrication or extrusion suppliers.
- Refining molten aluminum to remove contaminants and produce porosity-reduced castings supplied as ingots or billets.
- Providing lot traceability and documentation linking supplied aluminum products to recycled scrap sources and melt lab reports.
When is NAICS 331314 a weak fit?
- Primary aluminum production from bauxite involves electrolytic reduction of alumina and ore processing rather than recycling and secondary smelting of scrap aluminum.
- Aluminum extrusion or rolling transforms ingots into profiles or sheet and is separate from smelting and alloying.
- Non-aluminum foundry casting produces ferrous or other non-aluminum alloy castings and belongs to metal foundry categories, not secondary aluminum smelting.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 331314?
- Purchase orders specify alloy grade designations, chemical composition tolerances, and require certificates of analysis for each delivered melt.
- Contract requires recycled content documentation, scrap feedstock traceability, and melt lab reports confirming composition and impurity levels.
- Line items list delivered units as ingots or billets by weight, reference casting methods, and include acceptance tests for chemical assay or mechanical properties.
