UNSPSC 31162102: Wedge anchors

UNSPSC 31162102 Wedge anchors, a Commodity code, encompasses fastening hardware and electrical connectors that state and local governments procure for facility maintenance, infrastructure repair, and equipment installation. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing electrical components and supplies—plugs, connectors, and related hardware—on both as-needed and spot-purchase bases. The City of Phoenix and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) both sourced these items in early 2026, with Phoenix seeking a three-year supply contract for electrical parts across multiple departments and airports, and DART issuing a straightforward purchase order for a male straight blade 125V plug. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal public works departments, transit authorities, and airports operating within city systems.

Activity concentrated in Arizona and Texas during the first half of 2026. The City of Phoenix Public Works Department posted IFB 26-FMD-012 on March 24, 2026, with a bid due date of July 9, 2025 (conflicting source dates suggest correction to July 9, 2026), seeking sealed offers for a three-year electrical parts and supplies contract with two optional one-year extensions; the solicitation required local stocking distributors capable of 48-hour delivery within a 25-mile radius of Phoenix and drew bids from vendors offering discounts off manufacturer lists from major brands including Allen Bradley, Eaton, GE, Hubbell, Schneider Electric, and Siemens. DART issued purchase order 2097775 on January 29, 2026, with a February 5, 2026 submission deadline, for a single male straight blade 125V plug item; bidders competed on FOB Destination pricing with Net 30 payment terms and were required to register through the BONFIRE system.
