UNSPSC 31282103: Brass spin formed components

UNSPSC 31282103 Brass spin formed components is a Commodity code covering specialized metal components used in infrastructure and equipment assembly, though state and local procurement activity under this code appears limited. Recent solicitations show municipalities purchasing fire hydrants and related brass-formed subcomponents for water system infrastructure and replacement projects. The issuing bodies include municipal water and utility departments, with occasional coordination across county jurisdictions for larger regional replacement initiatives.

The City of Midland, Texas, acting on behalf of Mason County, issued an IFB on March 26, 2026 (solicitation 26003721) for 71 fire hydrants in three sizes—45 units of 4-foot, 20 units of 5-foot, and 6 units of 6-foot—for the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project, with responses due April 9, 2026. Bidders submitted itemized pricing through the Bonfire e-procurement platform with F.O.B. delivery to Midland and must maintain workers' compensation insurance. Texas local preference rules applied, permitting award to a local bidder within five percent of the lowest non-local bid price. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were specified in this procurement.
