UNSPSC 31162603: S hooks

UNSPSC 31162603 S hooks, a Commodity code, covers hardware fasteners and attachment devices that state and local governments procure for facilities maintenance, equipment assembly, and infrastructure support. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring s hooks primarily through broader door hardware and general equipment maintenance contracts rather than as standalone line items. Mt. Hood Community College's July 2026 RFQ for door hardware included keyed cylinders, spare cylinders, and key blanks on an as-needed basis over a 24-month term, with mandatory pre-bid attendance required for eligibility and evaluation weighted 30 percent price, 40 percent experience, and 30 percent availability. The City of Philadelphia's June 2026 micro purchase for revenue vault hinge bearing rebuild, valued under $43,000, illustrates the ancillary role s hooks and similar fasteners play in broader maintenance contracts. Issuing bodies under this code include community colleges and city facilities departments managing routine maintenance and repair operations; school districts and municipal departments represent the primary buyer base for these commodity-level fastening products.

Activity in this code appears concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Mid-Atlantic regions, with recent solicitations posted in Oregon, Pennsylvania, and through Sourcewell's multi-state cooperative vehicle. Sourcewell's May 2026 RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment, due June 16, 2026, is a broad cooperative procurement on behalf of Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, plus numerous other jurisdictions across the United States and Canada, though the law enforcement equipment scope does not directly align with s hooks procurement. Mt. Hood Community College (Oregon) represents the most recent and directly relevant opportunity; the City of Philadelphia and the Washington counties through Sourcewell indicate that s hooks and similar fastening hardware are acquired through larger maintenance and equipment contracts rather than as dedicated commodity purchases, suggesting limited standalone market activity under this specific code.
