TEC Aerospace's expert military spare parts manufacturing services has fulfilled a critical role in the U.S. defense supply chain. We operate as a dedicated 'build-to-print' manufacturer, specializing in the production of mission-critical mechanical hardware that ensures the operational readiness of defense platforms. Our purpose is not to design new components, but to execute on the detailed technical data packages provided by our customers with absolute fidelity. This focus on expert execution defines our work and our unwavering commitment to meeting the exact needs of our government partners, primarily the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA).
Our Military Spare Parts Manufacturing Services
Our manufacturing capabilities cover a wide and essential range of aerospace and defense components. We produce the foundational hardware that keeps our nation's military equipment functioning at peak performance under the most demanding conditions. This includes a comprehensive portfolio of high-strength fasteners, such as military-specification bolts, nuts, screws, and self-locking rings that are essential for securing critical assemblies subjected to extreme stress and vibration. We also produce a variety of precision-engineered rotational components, including gears, shafts, bushings, and bearings that are vital to power transmission and mechanical function in systems like aircraft actuators, landing gear mechanisms, and ground vehicle drivetrains. From structural parts like plates and housings to fluid system components like hydraulic manifolds and machine thread plugs, our products are the dependable building blocks that military maintainers rely on to keep assets in the field and mission-ready.
Our production is guided by strict and disciplined adherence to customer-provided Technical Data Packages (TDPs) and the relevant military specifications (MIL-SPEC) they contain. At our Clayton, New Jersey, facility, we leverage advanced manufacturing processes, including multi-axis CNC machining, to transform challenging materials into perfectly conforming parts. This technology allows us to create complex geometries with high repeatability.
Our team is proficient in working with a range of high-performance alloys selected for their unique properties, from aerospace-grade aluminum 7075 and titanium to high-strength steels like 4140 and 9310 aircraft-grade steel, and nickel-based superalloys like Inconel that are used in high-temperature environments. This technical expertise allows us to consistently achieve the exceptionally tight dimensional tolerances, often as precise as ±0.0002 inches, and specific surface finishes required for defense applications, ensuring every part we deliver offers perfect fit, form, and function.
Quality and Compliance in Military Spare Parts Manufacturing
The integrity of the U.S. defense supply chain demands absolute security and quality. TEC Aerospace operates in full compliance with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), safeguarding sensitive defense information and ensuring that all technical data is handled exclusively by authorized U.S. persons. Furthermore, our quality management system is aligned with the rigorous principles of the AS9100 standard, which mandates disciplined process controls, proactive risk management, strict configuration management, and robust counterfeit part prevention.
This disciplined approach is how we provide the DLA and the warfighter with more than just a part; we provide certainty. A single non-conforming component can ground a multi-million-dollar aircraft or disable a critical vehicle, compromising mission objectives and endangering personnel. Every component that leaves our facility is a testament to our commitment to reliability, ensuring that when a piece of equipment needs repair, the replacement part will perform without fail. At TEC Aerospace, we understand our vital role: we manufacture the reliability that underpins mission success.
