Drive mounts10 Housings. 10 Days. Pursuing ITAR Registration.
A Bridgeport defense contractor needed mil-spec housings machined under ITAR controls — tight bore tolerances, MIL-A-8625 anodize, and full dimensional verification. Teams near companies like Sikorsky — Stratford trust this kind of precision and documentation rigor.
Every unit shipped with controlled documentation:
- CMM dimensional report — all MIL-spec callouts verified
- Material cert with heat lot traceability
- First Article Inspection per AS9102
- MIL-A-8625 Type III anodize process cert
What Bridgeport Defense Buyers Should Know
Sikorsky helicopter parts are flight-critical
Black Hawk and CH-53K rotorcraft components require Nadcap special process approvals and full first article inspection per AS9102.
Rotorcraft transmission parts need specific heat treat specs
Helicopter gearbox and transmission components require precisely controlled case hardening. Specify the exact AMS heat treat spec on your drawing.
Lockheed Martin Sikorsky quality systems reject incomplete paperwork
Missing material certs or dimensional reports hold shipments at Stratford receiving. Ship complete documentation with every delivery.
When Your Local Shop Can't Keep Up
When a prime contract surges volume, smaller buyers get pushed back. We give you fixed lead times, ITAR compliance, and mil-spec documentation — every time. Bridgeport's defense sector demands it.
