UNSPSC 31381226: Sintered coated isotropic neodymium magnet

Sintered isotropic neodymium magnet that has been coated

UNSPSC 31381226 Sintered coated isotropic neodymium magnet is a Commodity code covering specialized magnetic materials and components. The recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little alignment with the nominal scope; the single identified opportunity—a Texas A&M University System ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates—is plainly unrelated to neodymium magnets or sintered magnetic materials. The code does not show concrete recent procurement demand for its stated product family from state and local issuing bodies. Without substantive recent opportunities properly classified under this code, the market signal is unclear.

The Texas A&M University System issued ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0547 with a bid due date of October 28, 2026, seeking stainless steel diaphragm plates through the AggieBid procurement portal. The solicitation provides no disclosed quantity, pricing, contract duration, budget, or site-visit information. All bidding activity, addenda, and communications occur within AggieBid; prospective vendors must register electronically with that system and direct questions to Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu. The misclassification of this diaphragm-plate procurement under a neodymium magnet code suggests either a data-entry error in the state procurement system or a fundamental mismatch between the code and actual sourcing activity. Until representative opportunities genuinely scoped to sintered coated isotropic neodymium magnets appear in the state and local pipeline, this code warrants close monitoring but does not yet present actionable market insight.
