UNSPSC 41121517: Pipetter inserts or accessories

UNSPSC 41121517 Pipetter inserts or accessories is a Commodity code covering laboratory and medical pipetting equipment and related accessories. State and local governments procure under this code principally for educational institutions, public health laboratories, and research facilities that require precision liquid-handling tools for clinical analysis, scientific testing, and diagnostic work. The code captures both standalone pipetter accessories and consumable or replacement components such as tips, spacers, and insert systems that support laboratory operations.

Recent activity under the code is minimal and does not align clearly with the code's nominal scope. The State of California issued an RFB (RFBIS26200929) on May 5, 2026, for Rainin Pipettes and Spacers intended for the Louisiana Association of Chiefs, with a response deadline of May 22, 2026; however, the full solicitation packet was not available for detailed scope review. A second opportunity tagged to this code — Orange County, Florida's sealed-bid solicitation Y26742 for emergency bridge replacement at Wallington Drive Bridge (No. 754190) and Egret Way Bridge (No. 754187), posted June 25, 2026 with an amended deadline of July 7, 2026 — is unrelated to pipetting equipment and appears to be a coding misclassification. The estimated project cost for the bridge work is $6,202,246.05. Without additional recent opportunities in this code space, it is difficult to characterize active issuing bodies, geographic concentration, or market demand for pipetter accessories at the state and local level.
