UNSPSC 31301111: Brass open die machined forgings

UNSPSC 31301111 Brass open die machined forgings, a Commodity code, covers brass forgings produced through open die forging and machining processes that state and local governments procure as component parts or finished goods for equipment maintenance, infrastructure repair, and specialized industrial applications. The code encompasses precision-machined brass forgings used in marine hardware, plumbing fixtures, electrical connectors, valve bodies, and mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance and machinability are required. State and local procurement under this code typically involves small-to-medium production runs sourced through equipment suppliers, infrastructure contractors, or specialized metalworking vendors rather than direct manufacturing procurement.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code, making it difficult to characterize current issuing-body mix, geographic activity, or representative solicitations. Without posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB records, the code appears dormant in the current state and local procurement landscape, though this may reflect the specialized and intermittent nature of brass forging demand rather than zero market activity. Firms pursuing this Commodity should monitor regional procurement channels for infrastructure modernization projects, water system upgrades, or equipment replacement cycles that routinely incorporate brass forgings as subcomponents.
