UNSPSC 31163230: Plastic retaining clip

A fastener made of plastic used to secure the parts of a chain

UNSPSC 31163230 Plastic retaining clip is a Commodity code covering fastening hardware—specifically plastic clips and retainers used in assembly, securing, and component retention across a wide range of applications. State and local governments procure these items primarily as component parts for equipment maintenance, facility systems, and capital equipment repair rather than as standalone products; they appear in RFQs and ITBs issued by transportation departments, water authorities, facilities management divisions, and school districts seeking replacement parts for HVAC systems, plumbing fixtures, electrical assemblies, and vehicle or fleet equipment.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code. Given the commodity's role as a small-value, high-volume fastening component typically bundled into larger maintenance or repair contracts rather than solicited independently, activity under the code itself is difficult to characterize. Firms pursuing state and local work in this space should expect to encounter plastic retaining clips as line items in broader RFQs for facilities parts, fleet maintenance supplies, or equipment replacement contracts rather than as standalone procurements with their own notice cycles.
