UNSPSC 31151603: Roller chains

UNSPSC 31151603 Roller chains (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The opportunities logged against this Commodity code involve electrical distribution equipment (voltage regulators), utility poles (wooden, concrete, and ductile iron), law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle, pavement rehabilitation, and industrial gearboxes—none of which are roller chains or chain-drive components. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or that this code is not currently being used for active state and local procurement activity.

The recent opportunities cluster around Florida municipal utilities (the City of Ocala appearing in three separate ITBs for electrical inventory and poles, posted September 28, 2026 with response dates ranging from April through November 2026), a multi-state cooperative procurement through Sourcewell for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026), Santa Clara County's pavement rehabilitation project (ITB ITBRDAFY260694, due May 21, 2026), and Hillsborough County's industrial equipment purchase (ITQ2600239 for gearboxes and bushings, due May 8, 2026, budgeted at $30,400.00). None of these solicitations reference chain or sprocket products. If your firm tracks opportunities under 31151603, verify the code assignment with the issuing bodies or consider whether a higher-tier Family or Class code would better capture the actual scope of work being solicited in your markets.
