UNSPSC 31161803: Binding washers

UNSPSC 31161803 Binding washers, a Commodity code, covers fastening hardware — bolts, washers, and related components — that state and local governments purchase for fleet maintenance, infrastructure repair, and facility operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring these items as discrete line-item purchases tied to specific equipment needs rather than as bulk consumable stock. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) and municipal water utilities represent typical issuing bodies; transit authorities and water districts account for the recent procurement activity in the block, though the code likely sees broader municipal and county purchasing as well.

DART posted a solicitation on September 3, 2026, for 1/2"-13 X 2-3/4" bolts (IFB 2100828) due September 11, 2026, with FOB Destination freight terms and Net 30 payment. A second opportunity from the City of Lavonia, Georgia, posted April 24, 2026, for Water Treatment Plant 2026 Improvements (IFB PE66940NONST2026000000005, due May 26, 2026) included fastener components within a larger construction scope. Geographic activity in the recent block centers on Texas and Georgia; the code likely sees activity across multiple states but the source does not name other jurisdictions. Transit authorities and water utilities in Texas and Georgia have posted concrete opportunities under this code in the current year.
