Federal obligations in industrial valve manufacturing (NAICS 332911)

$676.0M in federal contract obligations is tagged to industrial valve manufacturing, NAICS 332911, across 20,806 awards in USAspending.gov data indexed here. The fabricated-metal code covers industrial process valves—not fluid-power valves and hose fittings and not other metal pipe fittings. Dollars are obligations, not outlays. Assistance awards may not carry NAICS, so grant-funded plant parts that never become contracts sit outside this total.

Key figures

  • NAICS 332911 contract obligations are $676.0M on 20,806 awards.
  • The code is industrial process valves, not fluid-power fittings.
  • Average action size is about $32,500.
  • Figures are USAspending obligations, not outlays or valve counts.
  • Assistance without NAICS is excluded.

Industrial process valves at $676.0M

Plants, ships, and facilities use industrial valves made under 332911. Federal buyers tag $676.0M of contract obligations to that manufacturing NAICS on 20,806 awards. The total is not a count of valves installed.

Fluid power valve and hose fitting manufacturing (332912) and other metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing (332919) are siblings. Ball and roller bearings (332991) are a different small-parts metal code. $676.0M follows the 332911 industrial-valve tag. Packet facts are the dollar total and the 20,806 count.

20,806 awards and a spare-parts average

Twenty thousand eight hundred six awards against $676.0M averages about $32,500 per action. That pattern fits repeated valve and parts delivery orders better than a few capital-plant buys. 20,806 is not unique manufacturers and not unique NSNs.

High count with a modest average means a long tail on the hub. Amount sort finds any large industrial-valve lots inside $676.0M among the restock rows that inflate 20,806. Treat $32,500 as a divider, not a catalog price.

Plant and ship valve restocks look like bearing restocks: high count, modest average. $676.0M on 20,806 awards is the 332911 industrial-valve tag. Fluid-power and residual fitting codes are the fences. Pressure-class inventories are not in the packet and are not inferred.

Industrial valves versus fluid-power and other fittings

332911 is industrial valves. 332912 is fluid-power valves and hose fittings. 332919 is other metal valves and pipe fittings. Dual-role shops can be tagged in more than one of those codes. $676.0M stays with 332911 on 20,806 tagged actions.

Cite this industry as $676.0M in USAspending contract obligations tagged to NAICS 332911, industrial valve manufacturing, on 20,806 awards. The packet has no fiscal year. Live tables can move; the harvested pair remains $676.0M and 20,806.

Obligations on valve lots

Parts contracts often obligate a quantity and pay on inspection. $676.0M is committed value on 20,806 tagged actions, not cash already paid for every valve. Cancellations de-obligate. Outlays track payments separately.

Keep $676.0M attached to 332911 as tagged. This overlay does not merge fluid-power or other-fitting dollars into the industrial-valve cell. Read descriptions on the 20,806 rows where the hub allows.

Hub navigation for 332911

Open the industrial valve manufacturing industry page for the 20,806 awards behind $676.0M. Use the all-industries directory for fluid-power valves, other fittings, and bearings without combining those totals here. Source: USAspending.gov contract awards.

Assistance without NAICS remains outside even when a grant buys similar plant parts. Internal links on this file point only to the 332911 industry page and the all-industries directory.

Industrial process valves occupy a 20,806-award spare-parts file under $676.0M. That is denser than fluid-power 332912 in this slice and still not a unit count. Sibling fitting codes must not be summed into 332911. Pressure classes are not in the packet. Source: USAspending.gov contract awards; obligations not outlays; assistance may not carry NAICS.

Industrial process valves in a 20,806-row parts file

Industrial valves are plant and ship spare parts as often as they are capital lots. $676.0M on 20,806 awards follows 332911 as tagged. Fluid-power fittings (332912) and other metal fittings (332919) are siblings, not addends. The about $32,500 average is a divider across a long tail, not a catalog price.

Delivery orders inflate 20,806 relative to unique manufacturers. Amount sort on the industrial valve manufacturing industry page finds large lots inside $676.0M among restock rows. Valve counts and pressure classes are not in the packet facts.

Questions

How much federal contracting is coded to industrial valve manufacturing?
NAICS 332911 shows $676.0M in obligations on 20,806 USAspending contract awards. That is industrial process valves as tagged, not fluid-power valves. The unit is obligations, not outlays or valve counts. Assistance awards may not carry NAICS, so grants remain outside the 20,806-award extract behind $676.0M.
Does 332911 include hydraulic hose fittings?
No. Fluid power valve and hose fitting manufacturing is NAICS 332912. Other metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing is 332919. This page’s $676.0M is the 332911 industrial-valve tag on 20,806 awards. Keep those sibling fabricated-metal codes on their own hubs.
Why is the average award about $32,500?
Dividing $676.0M by 20,806 awards yields about $32,500 per action. Delivery orders and spare-parts restocks inflate count relative to capital-equipment NAICS codes. The count is not unique companies and not unique NSNs. Sort the hub by amount to see large lots versus the long tail of small tickets.
Are plant-parts grants included?
Usually not. Assistance awards may not carry NAICS, so they fall outside this 20,806-award contract extract. Use program pages for grants. This industry guide covers tagged contracts only: $676.0M obligated on 20,806 industrial valve manufacturing awards in USAspending. Outlays are a different field.
