UNSPSC 30264601: Stainless steel SAE 200 series hot rolled sheet

Hot rolled sheet of various thicknesses produced from SAE 200 stainless steels

UNSPSC 30264601 Stainless steel SAE 200 series hot rolled sheet, a Commodity code, covers fabricated stainless steel sheet stock and plate materials that state and local governments buy for infrastructure, utility, and facilities work. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring both finished stainless steel components (diaphragm plates, angle and square tube stock) and raw metal sheet and plate materials for internal fabrication or assembly operations. The issuing bodies span state agencies, university systems, cities, and special-purpose districts: the Texas A&M University System, the State of Illinois, the City of Detroit, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the Texas Water Development Board, and the Texas Department of Transportation all posted opportunities under or adjacent to this code family in the past four months. The work ranges from framework agreements establishing unit costs for as-needed purchases (Illinois' blanket order for stainless angle and square tube) to competitive bids for specific finished components (Texas A&M's stainless diaphragm plates, Detroit's post base plates and drive caps).

Geographic activity centers on Texas and Illinois, with recent activity also in Michigan and Georgia. Representative opportunities include the Texas A&M University System's ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates (due October 28, 2026), the State of Illinois' blanket order agreement for stainless steel angle and square tube (proposals due September 11, 2026), and the City of Detroit's RFQ for anchor bolts, post base plates, and drive caps for sign shop operations (quotes due August 12, 2026, with a mandatory Detroit-based business certification requirement and a three-year contract term). The City of Detroit opportunity specifies material standards (ASTM conformance), delivery windows, defect liability, and prevailing-wage and diversity-composition compliance including 50% Detroit resident workforce, 25% minority, and 5% women participation. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice also solicited sheet metal and metal plate materials (IFB due July 28, 2026). Contract values and quantities vary; the Detroit opportunity projects annual spend of $80–500 units depending on product type and contract year, while the Illinois BOA and Texas A&M solicitation do not disclose quantities or pricing in available summaries.
