UNSPSC 31381234: Sintered off tool isotropic ferrite magnet

Sintered isotropic ferrite magnet that has been sintered off-tool

UNSPSC 31381234 Sintered off tool isotropic ferrite magnet is a Commodity code for specialized magnetic materials used in industrial and technical applications. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little direct alignment with the code's nominal scope; the one recent opportunity posted — City of Midland, Texas fire hydrant procurement — involves structural water-distribution infrastructure and does not involve ferrite magnets or the materials this code nominally covers. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification artifact in the source system or a tangential connection not evident from the solicitation documents themselves.

The City of Midland IFB (Solicitation 26003721), posted March 26, 2026 with an April 9, 2026 response deadline, solicited 71 fire hydrants (45 units of 4-foot, 20 units of 5-foot, and 6 units of 6-foot) meeting attached technical specifications, with F.O.B. delivery to Midland and freight prepaid. Bidders were required to submit itemized unit pricing, descriptive literature, delivery timeframes, and product identification through the Bonfire e-procurement platform. Texas local preference provisions applied if a local bidder's price fell within five percent of the lowest non-local offer. No MBE, SBE, or other set-aside designations were noted. The procurement documents identified no incumbent vendor or award budget. This code shows minimal relevant recent state and local activity; firms evaluating pursuit under it should verify whether their ferrite magnet products or services align with actual buying patterns in the target market, as the current data does not support a clear procurement signal.
