UNSPSC 42151656: Dental spreaders

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used for the compacting of root canal filling materials during lateral condensation. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42151656 Dental spreaders is a Commodity code, though the single recent state and local opportunity tagged under it involves digital intraoral scanning equipment rather than hand instruments. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posted a sole source procurement (SS202620) in November 2025 for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., valued at $143,196.00. The code's nominal scope — dental spreaders as hand instruments — does not align with the advanced 3D imaging technology actually being procured here, suggesting either a tagging error in the opportunity record or a significant mismatch between the UNSPSC classification and current state and local buying activity.

The source provides no evidence of additional recent opportunities or a broader pattern of solicitations under this code from other state and local issuing bodies, school districts, or jurisdictions. The single posted opportunity is specific to one Florida institution's educational program and follows a sole source process under Florida Administrative Code and Statute, with no competitive element. Geographic and issuing-body concentration cannot be assessed from a single opportunity, and the lack of corroborating activity in the recent-opportunities block prevents characterization of the code's current market viability for vendors pursuing state and local contracts.
