UNSPSC 30264106: Steel alloy SAE 4000 series cold rolled sheet

Cold rolled sheet of various thicknesses produced from SAE 4000 steel alloys

UNSPSC 30264106 Steel alloy SAE 4000 series cold rolled sheet is a Commodity code that rarely appears in recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The source shows no solicitations for SAE 4000 series cold rolled sheet itself; instead, recent opportunities tagged to this code involve welding services, coiled aluminum for license plate production, and pallet rack wire decking—none of which match the code's stated commodity. State and local buyers who do procure specialized metal stock typically source it through supply contracts or cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than formal competitive bidding, and the few opportunities that appear under this code suggest either data-entry misclassification or procurement systems that apply commodity codes loosely to work that includes materials as incidentals.

The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitational Bid (ITB) in August 2026 for mobile welding and fabrication services with a three-year estimated value of $207,429.10; the Colorado Department of Corrections posted multiple Invitations for Bid between May and August 2026 for coiled aluminum (3105H21 alloy, 21-gauge) destined for the CCi Tag Plant license plate production line; and the Los Angeles Superior Court solicited pallet rack wire decking in April 2026. The geographic activity appears concentrated in Colorado (three recent bids from the Department of Corrections) and isolated instances in Florida and California. The mismatch between the code's definition and what is actually being bought—mostly services and aluminum alloys outside the SAE 4000 series specification—suggests this code does not reflect genuine current procurement demand in the state and local sector.
