UNSPSC 42152924: Endodontic stops

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with endodontic stops. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42152924 Endodontic stops is a Commodity code that nominally designates dental filling materials, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reveal a significant mismatch between the code's abstract scope and what is actually being procured. The three most recent solicitations—a sole-source acquisition of iTero Lumina 3D intraoral scanners by Valencia College's Dental Hygiene Department, a Texas A&M University master-order agreement for a pool of dental and medical equipment and supplies vendors, and a City of Arlington cyanide flow analyzer for wastewater treatment—show that this code is being applied to a wide variety of dental equipment, imaging technology, and even non-dental laboratory instruments rather than to endodontic stops or related dental consumables. The actual buying under this code spans advanced digital dental diagnostic equipment, broad-based dental and medical supply arrangements, and specialized analytical instruments for municipal operations. Issuing bodies include higher-education institutions with dental or health-sciences programs (Valencia College, Texas A&M University) and municipal utilities (City of Arlington), suggesting a fragmented buyer base across educational and local-government sectors rather than consolidated procurement through a single agency or sector.

The recent activity is concentrated in Texas and Florida, with the highest-profile opportunity being Valencia College's $143,196.00 sole-source procurement of four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., issued as Solicitation SS202620 with a due date of November 27, 2025. Texas A&M University issued ITB TAMHSC-26-0648 on August 20, 2026, seeking bids for a master-order pool of dental and medical equipment and supplies vendors, with a response deadline of September 3, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Central Standard Time and submission required through the AggieBid portal. The code shows limited, episodic recent activity unaligned with its nominal commodity scope, and business developers should verify whether opportunities tagged under this code are genuinely relevant to endodontic or dental-supply offerings or represent miscoding of unrelated equipment and laboratory procurements.
