UNSPSC 31282100: Spin formed components

UNSPSC 31282100 Spin formed components is a Class code under which state and local governments procure fabricated metal products, particularly fire hydrants and similar pressure vessels manufactured through spin-forming processes. The City of Midland, Texas recently solicited 71 fire hydrants (45 units of 4-foot, 20 units of 5-foot, and 6 units of 6-foot heights) conforming to technical specifications for the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project, with delivery F.O.B. Midland and freight prepaid. Water and utility districts, municipalities, and counties represent the primary issuing bodies under this code, procuring replacement and new infrastructure components for water distribution systems. Spin-formed components—typically cylindrical or hemispherical metal products created through rotational forming—are a specialized commodity within the broader fabricated metals space, and recent state and local activity focuses on infrastructure maintenance and capital replacement rather than manufacturing or OEM supply.

The City of Midland's IFB (Invitation for Bid) issued March 26, 2026, with a response deadline of April 9, 2026 at 2:00 PM via the Bonfire e-procurement portal, represents the visible recent activity under this code. The procurement included Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 local preference provisions (within-five-percent rule) but no explicit set-asides for SBE, MBE, WBE, or other disadvantaged-enterprise categories. Bidders were required to submit itemized unit pricing, descriptive literature, delivery timeframes, and brand-and-model identification; workers' compensation insurance and a Non-Collusion Statement were mandatory. The source does not identify activity in other states or regions, nor does it name repeat buyers or broader geographic concentration; this single recent opportunity and the absence of a stated award value or budget range suggest the code sees limited recent solicitation volume at the state and local level.
