UNSPSC 31162611: Slip hooks

UNSPSC 31162611 Slip hooks (Commodity) encompasses hardware fastening and attachment components that state and local governments procure for facilities maintenance, infrastructure repair, and equipment servicing. Recent solicitations show the code capturing door hardware assemblies including keyed cylinders and hinges, as well as bearing components for specialized equipment like revenue vaults. The issuing bodies span community colleges, municipalities, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving county governments and public agencies across multiple states. Work under this code ranges from routine as-needed supplies (such as replacement door hardware with factory keying and spare cylinders) to specialized micro purchases for infrastructure components (such as vault hinge bearing rebuilds requiring insurance and compliance certifications). Awards typically flow to single contractors offering best value based on weighted criteria balancing price, experience, and availability, though municipalities reserve the right to split awards across multiple line items or vendors.

Mt. Hood Community College (Oregon) posted an RFP in July 2026 for door hardware on an as-needed basis over 24 months, requiring mandatory pre-bid attendance and pricing per item across multiple cylinder types with response due August 7, 2026. The City of Philadelphia (Pennsylvania) posted a micro purchase RFQ in June 2026 for revenue vault hinge bearing rebuild services with a contract ceiling of $43,000, requiring workers' compensation and general liability insurance. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued an RFP in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment intended to serve thousands of governmental agencies, counties, and school districts nationwide, with response due June 16, 2026. Recent activity clusters in the Pacific Northwest and Mid-Atlantic regions, with cooperative purchasing vehicles extending reach across multiple states and entity types.
