UNSPSC 31161531: Lead screw or power screw

A leadscrew is a screw specialized for the purpose of translating rotational to linear motion.

UNSPSC 31161531 Lead screw or power screw is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunity on record shows no direct procurement activity under this narrow mechanical-component code. Harris County Department of Education (HCDE), procuring through cooperative-purchasing partner Choice Partners, issued a Competitive Sealed Proposal (26021MR) in May 2026 for Painting, Drywall, Acoustical Ceilings, and Flooring services — a scope entirely unrelated to lead screws or power screws. The mismatch suggests this code carries little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement, or that the opportunity was mistagged in the source system.

Without active solicitations for lead screws or power screws themselves, the geographic reach, issuing-body mix, and market appetite for this Commodity code cannot be characterized from the available source material. Firms evaluating pursuit under UNSPSC 31161531 should monitor state and local procurement channels directly for upcoming RFQs or IFBs from facilities-maintenance departments, transit authorities, manufacturing-support functions, or equipment-repair operations that would have genuine demand for precision screws and fasteners, as the passive opportunity record does not currently signal active buying.
