UNSPSC 31381312: Pressed sintered and machined and coated isotropic ferrite magnet

Pressed isotropic ferrite magnet that has been sintered, machined, and coated

UNSPSC 31381312 Pressed sintered and machined and coated isotropic ferrite magnet is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to it shows a divergence from the code's nominal scope. The Texas A&M University System posted an ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates—a machined metal component unrelated to ferrite magnets—suggesting either a cataloging mismatch in the source data or an atypical application of the code. The code itself would ordinarily cover precision ferrite magnets used in industrial equipment, sensors, motors, and specialized machinery where isotropic magnetic properties and sintered-metal construction are required, but the recent opportunities do not reflect that scope.

The sourced activity is sparse and localized. The single recent opportunity is a Texas A&M University System ITB (TAMUSITB270547) for stainless steel diaphragm plates due October 28, 2026, with submission through the AggieBid procurement portal and contact at soprocurement@tamus.edu. No quantities, budget, contract duration, or award timeline are disclosed. The code does not show sufficient recent state and local procurement activity to characterize a meaningful geographic spread or pattern of repeat buyers; firms evaluating this code should verify whether the stainless steel diaphragm-plate opportunity represents a genuine application of ferrite-magnet procurement or a data-entry anomaly before investing in pursuit strategy.
