UNSPSC 31281514: Copper stamped components

UNSPSC 31281514 Copper stamped components is a Commodity code that covers specialized metal components used in infrastructure and utility systems, specifically including fire hydrants and related copper-stamped assemblies that state and local governments procure for water system maintenance and replacement projects. The code sees activity primarily from municipal water and utility departments sourcing equipment that meets exacting technical and safety standards, with procurement governed by state and local competitive bidding statutes and delivery requirements tied to capital improvement initiatives.

The City of Midland, Texas, acting on behalf of Mason County, posted IFB 26003721 on March 26, 2026, seeking 71 fire hydrants (45 units of 4-foot hydrants, 20 units of 5-foot hydrants, and 6 units of 6-foot hydrants) under the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project, with bids due April 9, 2026 through the Bonfire e-procurement system. Bidders must provide itemized pricing, descriptive literature, delivery timeframes, and brand and product information, with all hydrants delivered F.O.B. to Midland with freight prepaid and included in the bid price. Texas local preference provisions apply under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051, allowing award to a local bidder within five percent of the lowest non-local bid if the City Council determines local economic development benefits justify the premium. Workers' compensation insurance and a Non-Collusion Statement are mandatory, with proof of insurance due within 21 days of award.
