UNSPSC 31282412: Non ferrous alloy explosive formed components

UNSPSC 31282412 Non ferrous alloy explosive formed components is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice covers fire hydrants and related pressurized water delivery infrastructure components. The City of Midland, Texas, acting on behalf of Mason County, is the primary recent buyer under this code, soliciting standardized hydrant units in a competitive IFB format. State and local water utilities, municipal water departments, and county water authorities represent the typical issuing bodies for components in this family, though the recent opportunity record is limited to a single procurement notice.

The City of Midland IFB 26003721, posted March 26, 2026, with a response deadline of April 9, 2026, sought 71 fire hydrants across three height specifications—45 units of 4-foot, 20 units of 5-foot, and 6 units of 6-foot—for the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project. Bidders were required to submit itemized pricing with unit and extended totals, descriptive literature, delivery timeframes in calendar days, and brand and product-number identification through the Bonfire e-procurement system. Delivery was F.O.B. Midland with freight prepaid and included in the bid price. The City reserved the right to award by item or in total to the lowest responsible or best-value bidder under Texas Local Government Code Section 252.043, with local preference provisions allowing the City Council to award to a local bidder whose price falls within five percent of the lowest non-local bid. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were specified. Texas represents the only state with recent activity under this code.
