UNSPSC 31381532: Plastic bonded injection molded coated anisotropic samarium cobalt magnet

Injection molded anisotropic samarium magnet that has been plastic bonded and coated

UNSPSC 31381532 Plastic bonded injection molded coated anisotropic samarium cobalt magnet is a Commodity code with limited recent state and local procurement activity on record. The one recent opportunity shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope—engineered magnetic materials—and what is actually being solicited under it: stainless steel diaphragm plates, a metal machined component unrelated to plastic-bonded samarium cobalt magnets. State and local governments buying under this code procure specialized magnetic materials and engineered components for industrial, medical, instrumentation, and defense applications where permanent magnets offer advantages in compactness, reliability, and performance.

The Texas A&M University System solicited stainless steel diaphragm plates under ITB TAMUSITB270547, with bids due October 28, 2026, through the AggieBid procurement portal. The single recent opportunity does not establish a clear issuing-body mix or geographic pattern for authentic procurement activity under this code's intended scope. Prospective vendors should verify that opportunities tagged with this code align with plastic-bonded magnet capabilities before investing bid preparation effort; the mismatch in the current record suggests that either the code assignment is incorrect or state and local demand for these engineered materials remains sparse and may be better tracked through related material science or industrial component codes.
