UNSPSC 31381130: Cast coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnet

Cast anisotropic barium ferrite magnet that has been coated

UNSPSC 31381130 Cast coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnet is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity in the available data—the City of Midland, Texas IFB for 71 fire hydrants under the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project (due April 9, 2026)—does not align with the code's nominal scope of cast coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnets. The fire hydrant solicitation concerns water infrastructure equipment and does not reference magnetic components or materials within its technical specifications or deliverables. This mismatch between the code taxonomy and actual procurement content indicates that the code either carries misapplied tags in state and local procurement systems or draws minimal buying activity that can be reliably tracked through recent notices.

Without additional opportunities tagged to this code in the recent procurement record, geographic concentration and issuing-body patterns cannot be established. The single fire hydrant opportunity involved the City of Midland acting on behalf of Mason County, Texas, but this instance does not support a characterization of broader activity under the code. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify whether cast coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnets are actually purchased as discrete line items under this UNSPSC classification or whether the code is routinely applied to unrelated categories of equipment procurement in their target jurisdictions.
