An object dragged in the water behind a ship or floating structure in order to keep it aligned with a predefined direction or position.

UNSPSC 22110108 Drag anchors is a Commodity code that in recent state and local activity covers the procurement of electrical parts and supplies, including components such as plugs, circuit breakers, contactors, and related electrical hardware from major manufacturers. State and local governments solicit under this code through city public works departments, transit authorities, and airport systems, typically on an as-needed or standing-order basis to support operations and maintenance across multiple departments and facilities. The City of Phoenix Public Works Department and the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) represent the kinds of issuing bodies actively buying under the code, with solicitations structured as IFBs for multi-year supply agreements or straightforward purchase orders for discrete electrical items.

Recent activity is concentrated in the Southwest, with the City of Phoenix and DART (Dallas area) posting opportunities in early 2026. The City of Phoenix issued IFB 26-FMD-012 on March 24, 2026, seeking sealed offers for electrical parts and supplies from 97 different manufacturers including Allen Bradley, Eaton, GE, Hubbell, Schneider Electric, and Siemens on a three-year term with two one-year extension options, with a pre-offer conference on June 4, 2025, and offers due July 9, 2025; vendors must be local stocking distributors capable of 48-hour delivery with preference for locations within 25 miles of central Phoenix. DART issued a purchase order (item 2097775) on January 29, 2026, for male straight blade 125V plugs due February 5, 2026, requiring FOB Destination terms and Net 30 payment. The source shows limited recent activity and does not support a characterization of broader geographic concentration or dominant issuing-body patterns.
