UNSPSC 31163212: Threaded pins

UNSPSC 31163212 Threaded pins is a Commodity code covering specialized fastening hardware and component pins used in electrical, utility, and insignia applications. State and local governments procure threaded pins as part of broader electrical equipment and materials sourcing, often embedded in larger component bundles rather than as standalone line items. The issuing bodies include municipal utilities, city public safety departments, and other local agencies sourcing hardware for infrastructure maintenance, equipment assembly, or ceremonial purposes. Recent activity shows utilities and cities treating threaded pins as part of competitive quote processes and formal RFP cycles for mixed-component procurement.

Recent opportunities span Texas and Arizona. Lubbock Power & Light, a Texas municipal electric utility, posted a competitive three-quote request (26-7017-ELD) on September 28, 2026, with response due October 5, 2026, seeking 42 line items of electrical components including fasteners and related hardware for delivery to an Erskine Substation location in Lubbock. The City of Tucson posted an RFP (260122) on August 14, 2026, for badges, pins, medals, and accessories across its Fire, Police, and Communications departments with a pre-submittal meeting scheduled for September 3, 2025, and proposals due September 17, 2025; this solicitation included Section 3 compliance requirements tied to federal funding and reserved the option for multiple awards. The code shows limited but concrete recent activity in utility and municipal procurement, with emphasis on delivery timelines and competitive pricing as key evaluation factors.
