UNSPSC 24101638: Wire rope sling

These slings are made up of tightly woven metallic wire ropes

UNSPSC 24101638 Wire rope sling is a Commodity code that covers rigging and lifting hardware used in material handling, marine operations, construction, and heavy equipment deployment across state and local government agencies. The recent solicitation activity tagged under this code does not reflect purchases of wire rope slings themselves; instead, the opportunities posted show marine vessel packages and electronic IT items, indicating a mismatch between the code classification and actual procurement scope. The code sees activity from county sheriffs' departments, school districts, and municipal purchasing offices, though the recent-opportunities block provides no direct evidence of wire rope sling procurement at the state or local level.

The geographic reach of recent activity under this code includes Texas jurisdictions — Galveston County Sheriff's Department and the City of Dallas have posted solicitations in the second and third quarters of 2026 — and Klein Independent School District. Galveston County issued solicitation 26106 on October 2, 2026, for warehouse inventory (due November 6, 2026), and the City of Dallas posted IFSAVIB1300001 on June 2, 2026, for electronic items for IT (due June 8, 2026). Neither opportunity represents typical wire rope sling procurement. State and local governments do acquire rigging hardware for port operations, bridge maintenance, and equipment rigging, but the recent-opportunities block contains no concrete examples of wire rope sling purchases to characterize current market activity or demand signals under this code.
