UNSPSC 30264703: Stainless steel SAE 200 series cold rolled coil

Cold rolled coil of various thicknesses produced from SAE 200 stainless steels

UNSPSC 30264703 Stainless steel SAE 200 series cold rolled coil (Commodity) covers specialty metal stock—primarily stainless steel coil, plate, angle, tube, and fastener components—that state and local agencies source for infrastructure maintenance, equipment fabrication, and capital projects. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing stainless steel diaphragm plates, angle and square tube materials, sheet metal and metal plate stock, and steel hardware (anchor bolts, post base plates, drive caps) to support operations ranging from university facilities and water treatment plant upgrades to municipal sign shops and corrections-system fabrication. The issuing bodies span universities (Texas A&M University System), state agencies (State of Illinois, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Water Development Board), cities (Detroit, Tucson), and regional water utilities (City of Lavonia, Georgia). Texas agencies and Texas-based jurisdictions appear prominently in recent postings, though the activity reflects a mix of state-level and municipal purchasing across the South and Texas.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas A&M University System's October 2026 ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates (due October 28, 2026), the State of Illinois' August 2026 Blanket Order Agreement for stainless steel angle and square tube materials (due September 11, 2026), and the City of Detroit's August 2026 RFQ for anchor bolts, post base plates, and drive caps for the Department of Public Works Traffic Engineering Division Sign Shop (due August 12, 2026, requiring Detroit-based business certification and a three-year contract term with usage projections of 80 to 160 boxes of bolts and 500 to 1,000 post base plates annually). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for raw materials sheet metal and metal plate in July 2026 (due July 28, 2026). Cooperative purchasing frameworks and multi-year supply agreements appear common; the Illinois BOA structure and the City of Detroit's three-year term with no renewal options illustrate the range of contract structures. Prevailing wage compliance, federal Buy America / Build America requirements, and disadvantaged business enterprise or local vendor preferences surface in several solicitations.
