UNSPSC 31133005: Warm forged machined beryllium forging

Forging made of beryllium that is forged at a warm temperature and has been machined

UNSPSC 31133005 Warm forged machined beryllium forging, a Commodity code, covers specialized metallurgical components produced through controlled thermal forming and precision machining processes. State and local governments procure these components primarily for aerospace and defense applications, nuclear research infrastructure, and specialized industrial equipment where beryllium's high strength-to-weight ratio, thermal conductivity, and rigidity are mission-critical. The code encompasses components ranging from small precision forgings to larger structural elements, all requiring close dimensional tolerance and material certification.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code. The specialized and high-security nature of beryllium forgings, combined with their primary use in federal defense and aerospace programs, results in minimal state and local procurement activity under this commodity classification. Opportunities involving beryllium components are typically managed through federal contracting channels, cooperative purchasing agreements with federal agencies, or sole-source arrangements with qualified vendors rather than through open state and local RFP or IFB processes.
