UNSPSC 42151632: Dental reamers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that are reamers shaped to be useful in dental procedures. US FDA regulates Dental reamers under 21 CFR 872.4565 and under FDA product code EKP. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42151632 Dental reamers is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows minimal alignment with its nominal scope. The most recent opportunities tagged under this code include a sole-source acquisition of iTero Lumina digital intraoral scanners by Valencia College's dental hygiene program, a Texas A&M master-order ITB for a pool of dental and medical equipment and supplies vendors, and an unrelated City of Arlington wastewater treatment cyanide analyzer procurement. Of these three solicitations, only the Valencia College and Texas A&M opportunities touch dental procurement; the Arlington cyanide analyzer represents a clear category mismatch. The code shows activity from higher-education institutions and municipal buyers rather than traditional dental-practice or clinic-focused purchasing. When dental equipment does appear, the solicitations lean toward advanced diagnostic and imaging technology and broader equipment-supply aggregation rather than hand instruments like reamers.

Geographic activity spans Florida (Valencia College) and Texas (Texas A&M and City of Arlington), with no additional states represented in the recent sample. Valencia College's $143,196.00 sole-source procurement for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., posted October 19, 2026 with a due date of November 27, 2025, illustrates the institution-specific, technology-forward nature of recent dental procurements under this code. Texas A&M's ITB TAMHSC-26-0648, posted August 20, 2026 with bids due September 3, 2026, establishes a more broadly competitive vendor pool for on-demand dental and medical supplies through the AggieBid portal. The code shows sparse and uneven recent activity; dental reamers as hand instruments do not feature explicitly in the identified opportunities, signaling either low market demand under this particular code assignment or persistent tagging misalignment with actual procurement practice.
