SDVOSB Industrial Casters, Wheels & Bearings — Built for Military, Aerospace & Government.

IAO Industries is a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and minority-owned distribution company specializing in industrial casters, wheels, and bearings for the military, government, aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment sectors. With over 23 years of industry leadership, we engineer tailored material handling solutions that maximize durability, performance, and safety — while cutting costs and lead times.

Your Trusted SDVOSB Partner for Government & Defense Procurement

As a certified SDVOSB, IAO Industries is a preferred procurement source for DLA Troop Support, all branches of the U.S. military, and prime defense contractors. We are set up to support small business set-aside contracts and deliver the speed, documentation, and accountability that government procurement demands. Whether you’re sourcing through the DLA, SAP, or a prime contractor channel, we are ready to support your supply chain.

IAO holds an active SAM.gov registration with CAGE code 8BF57. Our SDVOSB status is verified through the SBA VetCert program, making us immediately eligible for veteran set-aside procurement actions across all federal agencies and military branches. Prime contractors working toward their small business subcontracting plan goals can engage IAO directly through our supplier diversity portal registrations with Boeing, RTX, L3Harris, BAE Systems, and General Dynamics.

Can’t Find It? We’ll Reverse Engineer It.

One of IAO’s most powerful capabilities is reverse engineering expensive or obsolete casters, wheels, and bearings. When parts are discontinued, hard to source, or priced out of budget, our team re-engineers them from scratch — submitting Source Approval Requests (SAR) and manufacturing cost-competitive alternatives with faster availability. This is how we save our clients substantial money on parts that others simply can’t deliver.

IAO distributes trusted industrial brands including SKF, Timken, NTN, and EnerSys — covering Odyssey, Hawker, Genesis, DataSafe, and Cyclon battery lines for military and government applications. Whether you need standard catalog parts or a custom-engineered solution, IAO can source, specify, and deliver against your procurement requirements.

Industries We Serve

IAO Industries serves a wide range of sectors including: U.S. Military and Department of Defense, DLA Troop Support, Aerospace and Aviation, Automotive Manufacturing, Heavy Equipment and Construction, and Commercial Material Handling. Our SDVOSB and minority-owned certifications open additional procurement pathways for government buyers and prime contractors working toward small business subcontracting goals.

Every procurement engagement with IAO comes with full documentation support — NSN identification, spec compliance, certifications of conformance, and delivery coordination. We understand that government procurement is not just about the part — it’s about the paperwork, the timeline, and the accountability behind it.
