UNSPSC 31381304: Pressed sintered and machined isotropic neodymium magnet

Pressed isotropic neodymium magnet that has been sintered and machined

UNSPSC 31381304 Pressed sintered and machined isotropic neodymium magnet is a Commodity code that captures specialized ferromagnetic materials used in equipment and machinery across state and local operations. Recent solicitation activity under this code, however, shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought — the most recent opportunity posted tags stainless steel diaphragm plates, a component outside the magnet product family. State and local governments soliciting under this code appear to source magnets and magnet assemblies for industrial equipment, motors, sensors, and specialized machinery maintenance and replacement, but the recent posting does not reflect that scope.

The Texas A&M University System issued an ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates with a response deadline of October 28, 2026, through the AggieBid procurement portal. The system's automatic closure on the posted due date means no late submissions are accepted. Bidders must register and submit electronically via AggieBid; addenda and communications occur within that system rather than through external channels, and questions route to Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu or through the AggieBid Q&A function. The source does not disclose quantities, pricing, contract term, anticipated award date, or any set-aside or preference program. Because recent activity under this code is sparse and the single posted opportunity does not represent the code's stated commodity scope, verify current demand through direct outreach to state purchasing offices and university procurement departments before committing resources to this category.
