UNSPSC 30264901: Aluminum SAE 1000 series cold drawn bar

Cold drawn bar of various cross sections produced from SAE 1000 series aluminum

UNSPSC 30264901 Aluminum SAE 1000 series cold drawn bar (Commodity) encompasses raw aluminum materials and fabricated aluminum components, though recent state and local solicitations show little direct procurement activity tagged to this specific alloy designation. The most recent opportunities reveal state and local governments buying aluminum materials primarily as raw stock for fabrication into finished products—perforated panels for shelter rehabilitation, tubing for unspecified applications, and pallet rack wire decking components. Issuing bodies span county facilities (Harris County), state criminal justice departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and judicial systems (Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles), alongside education cooperatives and local maintenance operations. The work is neither specialized nor high-volume in the recent opportunity set; posting frequency suggests episodic procurement driven by facility repairs, capital projects, and inventory replenishment rather than recurring demand signals.

Geographic activity centers on Texas (TDCJ aluminum tubing procurement in July 2026, Harris County perforated-panel fabrication with October 28, 2026 response deadline) and California (Los Angeles Superior Court pallet rack wire decking, 606 units, due May 7, 2026), with a Georgia location appearing in building-construction scope unrelated to aluminum commodity procurement. Representative opportunities include Harris County's IFB2026000058 for fabricated perforated aluminum panels (due October 28, 2026) and TDCJ's IW257847 for raw aluminum tubing (due July 24, 2026), both using IFB format. The code shows sparse direct engagement under its formal designation; when aluminum procurement appears in state and local solicitations, it often sits tagged to construction, facilities, or equipment categories rather than as a standalone materials purchase, suggesting that buyers use broader commodity or project codes and aluminum sourcing flows through general construction or maintenance opportunities.
