53--SEAL,VERT HINGE PIN SPE7L126Q0933
Summary
AI-generated · Apr 04, 2026A vertical hinge pin seal (NSN 5330-016630109) is being opened to identify capable manufacturers beyond the two currently listed approved sources (Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics and The Boeing Company) with their respective part numbers. The government notes it is uneconomical to reverse engineer and does not own the data rights to manufacture this item; if only one source has the rights, different AMCs apply, and if two or more sources have rights, other AMCs apply. Interested parties should review the NSN and submit information on potential capability to manufacture this item.
If a company wants to be considered an approved source, they may pursue the Alternate Offer/Source Approval (SAR) Program. A SAR package must demonstrate the ability to manufacture to the same level of quality or better than the current OEM, and the burden is on the vendor to prove equivalence or superiority. Submit your information to the contract specialist by the stated response date. For details on the SAR process and required documentation, refer to the DLA Land and Maritime SAR program information.
