UNSPSC 31381242: Sintered off tool anisotropic strontium ferrite magnet

Sintered anisotropic strontium ferrite magnet that has been sintered off-tool

UNSPSC 31381242 Sintered off tool anisotropic strontium ferrite magnet is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement practice covers specialized magnetic components used in industrial equipment and infrastructure systems rather than the magnetic material alone. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code—the City of Midland, Texas fire hydrant procurement—shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited; fire hydrants are structural water-delivery devices for municipal water systems, not sintered ferrite magnets. This code shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement channels.

The City of Midland IFB 26003721, posted March 26, 2026 with an April 9, 2026 response deadline, solicits 71 fire hydrants (45 units of 4-foot, 20 units of 5-foot, and 6 units of 6-foot) for the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project. Bidders must submit itemized unit pricing, descriptive literature, delivery timeframes in calendar days, brand name and product number, and agree to F.O.B. Midland delivery with freight prepaid and included in the bid price. The City applies local preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051, allowing award to a local bidder within five percent of the lowest non-local bid price on economic-development grounds. All bidders must execute a Non-Collusion Statement, submit proof of workers' compensation insurance within 21 days of award, and provide a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire or Affidavit of Eligibility as applicable. The procurement documents do not identify an incumbent vendor, budget range, or award value. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises appear in the solicitation.
