TNMG332-M5 TP3501 carb turning insert and 1 more item

Sid Tool Co., Inc., doing business as MSC Industrial Supply Co., headquartered in Davidson, North Carolina, was awarded a purchase order by the State of Texas, Comptroller of Public Accounts – Statewide Procurement Division, on behalf of UT Rio Grande Valley (Agency 746) on July 11, 2026. The contract, identified as TXMAS-25-45003, involves the procurement of TNMG332-M5 TP3501 carbide turning inserts, which are precision cutting tools used in machining operations. The purchase order encompasses two line items totaling two units of the specified insert type, with a combined contract value of $389.02.

The purchase order was processed as an offline sale transaction with internal tracking number 52420131 and specified a delivery date of July 13, 2026. The State of Texas claimed exemption from state and city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the materials were being procured for exclusive use by a state entity. The relatively modest contract value and limited scope indicate this represents a routine consumable supply purchase for operational support at the university institution rather than a comprehensive service or equipment agreement.
