UNSPSC 42143506: Eustachian filiform sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with ear nose throat Ent examining mirrors. US FDA regulates Eustachian filiform sets under 21 CFR 874.4175 and under FDA product code KBY. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42143506 Eustachian filiform sets (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity recently tagged under this code. The three most recent opportunities—a handheld video laryngoscope and accessories from Collier County, Florida; ophthalmic instruments and supplies from Santa Clara County, California; and law enforcement equipment from Sourcewell on behalf of multiple jurisdictions—target medical devices and law enforcement gear, not Eustachian filiform instruments. The code shows no relevant recent activity in state and local markets for its stated commodity.

The opportunities present do not support characterizing issuing bodies, geographic patterns, or representative procurement trends under this code. Collier County issued a notice of intent to single source the GlideScope Go 2 video laryngoscope and accessories (due May 11, 2026, contract term through September 30, 2029), and Santa Clara County issued an ITB for ophthalmic instruments, services, and supplies (bid due July 10, 2026, three-year term). A cooperative purchasing vehicle—Sourcewell (State of Minnesota local government unit)—solicited law enforcement equipment proposals by June 16, 2026 for unnamed participating counties in Washington and public entities nationwide. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitations suggests either a tagging error in state and local procurement systems or that this commodity category sees minimal state and local demand.
