10 Housings. 10 Days. Pursuing ITAR Registration.

A Fremont defense contractor needed mil-spec housings machined under ITAR controls — tight bore tolerances, MIL-A-8625 anodize, and full dimensional verification.

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 Fremont Defense Buyers Should Know

Define GD&T before quoting

Fully defined callouts save revision cycles. Fremont shops flag ambiguities early — so should you.

Start supplier qualification early

Many Fremont defense companies require audits and sample approvals before production orders.

Plan for shipping logistics

Parts ship via FedEx and UPS with overnight options. Factor transit time into your program schedule.

Ask about documentation upfront

Confirm what documentation your receiving team needs before placing the order to avoid delays.

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.

Documentation-Ready

Dimensional reports, material certs, and process records ship with every order — no chasing paperwork after delivery.

Full Material Traceability

Every bar ships with mill certs and heat lot numbers. Full chain of custody from raw stock to finished part.

CMM Inspection, Every Part

NIST-traceable CMM verification on every critical dimension before anything ships. No sampling — we inspect every part.

5–7 Day Prototype Turnaround

Most first articles ship in under a week. Rush available for simpler geometries. Confirmed ship date at order.
