UNSPSC 23153147: Metal spraying wire and powder

Metal spraying is spraying hot metal on to a surface to create a coating. It is an industrial activity in which a powder or wire is atomized at high speed with compressed gas and sprayed onto a metal surface.

UNSPSC 23153147 Metal spraying wire and powder (Commodity) does not see active state and local procurement under this code. The recent opportunities block contains seventeen solicitations spanning June through July 2026, none of which involve metal spraying wire, thermal spray consumables, or related welding and surface-treatment materials. The opportunities named instead include freezer replacement (Gwinnett County, Georgia), trail and bridge construction (Orange County, Florida), equipment purchases (mini excavators, Stihl tools, plate compactors, power supplies, generators), utility relocations, park development, kitchen remodels, on-call infrastructure repairs, and industrial machinery components — all unrelated to thermal spray or metal spray applications. A single pre-qualification for industrial machinery components tangentially mentions "bearings, belts, couplings, gears, pillow blocks, roller chains, sheaves, sprockets" but explicitly excludes full machinery and equipment; metal spraying wire and powder do not fit this scope either.

State and local procurement activity under this Commodity code is not evident in the recent record. The absence of active solicitations suggests limited or no current demand for metal spraying wire and powder among the counties, cities, transit authorities, school districts, and special-purpose districts represented in the sourced opportunities. Watch this code if your firm services thermal spray, welding consumables, or surface preparation work for infrastructure or facility maintenance, but pursue only if issuing bodies in your target geographies explicitly solicit these materials.
