UNSPSC 31162907: Extending clamp

A device used to join, support or compress mechanical or structural parts. One or both arms of the clamp are adjustable to accommodate the size of the workpiece.

UNSPSC 31162907 Extending clamp, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source identifies no opportunities for extending clamps themselves; instead, recent solicitations tag miscellaneous hardware, supplies, and components across unrelated functional areas — anchoring and buoy components, traffic sign hardware (brackets, cantilever arms, banding, bollards), telecommunications parts and tools, silo accessories, door locks and hardware, woodshop and food service consumables, maintenance tools and fasteners, janitorial supplies, HVAC equipment, and law enforcement equipment. These represent scattered purchasing of fasteners, structural hardware, and consumable goods with no coherent category relationship to the nominal extending clamp commodity.

The issuing bodies span city procurement offices (Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Austin), state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC), county government (Hillsborough County, Marion County), a county fire rescue department, and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell serving multiple Washington state counties and other public entities). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (HHSC solicitations at multiple state supported living centers), Pennsylvania and Indiana (Philadelphia and Indianapolis city purchases), Florida (Hillsborough County), and multistate cooperative procurement. No recent opportunities directly procure extending clamps or related specialized fastening hardware at the commodity level. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to reflect either mis-tagging in source records or dormant procurement under this specific commodity classification.
