UNSPSC 39121642: Screw fuse

A fuse that uses fuse link with structure for tightening of screw into fuse holder after having inserted fuse element.

UNSPSC 39121642 Screw fuse (Commodity) covers electrical fuses that state and local governments procure as components within broader electrical supplies and systems contracts. Recent opportunities show fuses being sourced individually or in kits for utility distribution, transit operations, and general municipal electrical maintenance. The Commodity sees activity across state departments, school districts, city purchasing offices, and transit authorities, with no single buyer dominating the market. Scope ranges from small-quantity specialized components—such as the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's procurement of a 3-amp ATC fuse package in February 2026—to bulk fuse kits assembled to specification, exemplified by the City of Austin's two separate invitations for quotation (IFQ 1100 BAS1089 and IFQ 1100 BAS1090, both with May 5, 2026 response deadlines) requesting 150-amp and 200-amp current-limiting fuse kits with URD tap assemblies and mounting hardware from approved manufacturers including Cooper Bussman and Reliance Electric. School districts and counties also source fuses as line items within comprehensive electrical supplies contracts; the Pinellas County School District's March 2026 electrical supplies IFB (26AM008, due March 27, 2026) included fuses among 27 product categories for an estimated annual value of $950,000.

Recent activity clusters in Texas and Florida, with secondary representation in Minnesota-coordinated cooperative procurements. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority appears twice in the recent record (February and April 2026), indicating repeat purchasing of fuses at small volumes with short lead times. The City of Austin's back-to-back April 2026 quotations for assembled fuse kits demonstrate municipal preference for vendor-assembled, specification-compliant units rather than commodity fuses. Geographic concentration reflects population density in Texas and Florida, with the Sourcewell cooperative procurement (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) extending potential reach across Washington state, Minnesota, and participating jurisdictions nationwide, though the law enforcement equipment context suggests limited relevance to general screw fuse procurement. School districts appear to be steady but non-dominant buyers, typically incorporating fuses into larger electrical supplies contracts with annual renewal cycles rather than standalone fuse purchases.
