UNSPSC 31163213: Pivot pins

UNSPSC 31163213 Pivot pins, a Commodity code, addresses fastening hardware that state and local governments procure for vehicle maintenance, equipment repair, and facility operations. Pivot pins are cylindrical fasteners used to join components that require rotational movement — hinges on vehicle doors and equipment panels, suspension linkages in maintenance vehicles, and mechanical assemblies in grounds equipment and public works machinery. State and local purchasing offices source these pins through both direct procurement and standing supply agreements, typically bundling them with broader fastener and hardware acquisitions. The issuing bodies span state departments of transportation and public works, county maintenance operations, municipal public services divisions, and school district facilities and transportation departments.

The source provides no recent state or local contract opportunities tagged to this code. Without posted solicitations, available activity data, or issuing-body records, no geographic concentration or representative recent procurement can be characterized. Bidders should monitor cooperative purchasing vehicles and state-level GSA schedules for indirect sourcing of pivot pins as subordinate line items within broader fastener or MRO supply contracts.
