UNSPSC 31381526: Plastic bonded injection molded coated isotropic neodymium magnet

Injection molded isotropic neodymium magnet that has been plastic bonded and coated

UNSPSC 31381526 Plastic bonded injection molded coated isotropic neodymium magnet is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single posted opportunity under this code—the City of Midland, Texas fire hydrant solicitation—concerns the procurement of metal fire hydrants for municipal water infrastructure replacement, not plastic bonded magnets, indicating a taxonomy mismatch rather than active demand for the coded product line itself. State and local governments may acquire plastic bonded magnets for specialized equipment, sensors, or industrial applications, but the recent activity block does not reflect procurement of this commodity type.

The fire hydrant opportunity posted by the City of Midland on March 26, 2026, with a response deadline of April 9, 2026, represents the only traceable recent state and local solicitation tagged under this code. The opportunity, issued as an IFB through the Bonfire e-procurement platform, called for 71 fire hydrants in three configurations (45 four-foot, 20 five-foot, and 6 six-foot units) for the U25-01 Fire Hydrant Replacement Project. Texas local preference rules apply under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051, allowing the City Council to award to a local bidder if pricing falls within five percent of the lowest non-local bid. No set-asides or restricted-vendor designations were specified. Without additional opportunities in the recent block, the code shows limited signal for state and local business development targeting plastic bonded magnet procurement specifically; firms should monitor for infrastructure, manufacturing, or utility-related opportunities that may correctly list magnet-related commodity codes.
