UNSPSC 30263602: Carbon steel SAE 1100 series cold drawn bar

Cold drawn bar of various cross sections produced from SAE 1100 series carbon steels

UNSPSC 30263602 Carbon steel SAE 1100 series cold drawn bar is a Commodity code representing a specific ferrous metal product that state and local governments procure for fabrication, repair, and maintenance work across infrastructure, transportation, and public works applications. Cold drawn carbon steel bar in the SAE 1100 series—a low-carbon, high-ductility alloy—is used in applications requiring bending, forming, and machining where strength and workability must be balanced; state and local buyers source this material to support in-house machine shops, public works maintenance facilities, transit authority repair operations, and contracted fabrication work on equipment and structural components. The code draws purchasing from state departments of transportation and public works, county maintenance and fleet operations, municipal public utilities, and special-purpose districts managing water, wastewater, and transportation infrastructure.

The source material provided contains no recent state or local contract opportunities tagged to this code, and therefore no geographic concentration, issuing-body repeat patterns, or representative solicitation detail can be drawn from posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity. This silence does not indicate zero procurement—ferrous materials are routine consumables in public infrastructure work—but rather reflects either sparse or absent visible opportunity posting under this particular commodity classification in the available recent-opportunities dataset.
