UNSPSC 31282201: Aluminum roll formed components

UNSPSC 31282201 Aluminum roll formed components (Commodity) comprises fabricated metal parts and assemblies used by state and local governments in infrastructure replacement and maintenance projects. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—a fire hydrant procurement by the City of Midland, Texas—suggests the code captures assembled metal products with formed or stamped components rather than raw stock or simple fasteners. The City of Midland's April 2026 solicitation for 71 fire hydrants (45 units at 4 feet, 20 at 5 feet, and 6 at 6 feet, conforming to attached technical specifications) indicates state and local governments use this code to tag infrastructure components assembled from roll-formed aluminum or similar materials. Issuing bodies appear limited to municipal water and utility departments that procure standardized equipment through competitive IFB processes; the Midland example is typical in requiring F.O.B. delivery prepaid, itemized unit pricing, brand and product identification, and compliance with local preference and insurance mandates under Texas law.

Activity under the code is sparse. The single post in the most-recent-opportunities block—Solicitation 26003721, issued by the City of Midland on behalf of Mason County, Texas, with a response deadline of April 9, 2026—is the only recent state or local opportunity supporting visibility into this code's current market. Midland's fire hydrant replacement project is an infrastructure-renewal initiative typical of municipal utility modernization, but the limited posting activity and narrow issuing-body profile suggest either low procurement frequency across state and local jurisdictions or misalignment between the code's nominal scope and what utilities actually tag when buying fabricated metal components. Practitioners evaluating this code should treat it as a watch item pending additional market signals from other regions or issuing bodies.
