UNSPSC 31381219: Sintered machined and coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnet

Sintered anisotropic barium ferrite magnet that has been machined and coated

UNSPSC 31381219 Sintered machined and coated anisotropic barium ferrite magnet is a Commodity code that encompasses specialized ferrite magnet materials used in industrial and scientific equipment. Recent state and local solicitation activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the nominal code scope — the single recent opportunity identified is the Texas A&M University System's ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0547 for stainless steel diaphragm plates, which is a metalworking component unrelated to ferrite magnets. This mismatch suggests that either the code has been misapplied to a procurement that belongs elsewhere in the UNSPSC taxonomy, or state and local agencies are not currently soliciting ferrite magnets under this code.

The Texas A&M University System posted its diaphragm plate ITB on October 12, 2026, with a response deadline of October 28, 2026, through the AggieBid procurement portal exclusively — no paper submissions or external posting to ESBD are accepted. Questions and addenda route through AggieBid, with technical inquiries directed to vendorhelp@tamu.edu. The source does not disclose quantities, budget, contract duration, incumbent status, or any set-asides. Given the single unrelated opportunity and the code's narrow material specification, this Commodity code shows little current procurement activity at the state and local level.
