UNSPSC 42182104: Stethoscope head

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is the head portion of a stethoscope used in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Stethoscope head under 21 CFR 868.1930 and under FDA product code BZS. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42182104 Stethoscope head is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect actual stethoscope procurement. Instead, the tagged solicitations involve sprinkler-head replacement construction, medical supplies master agreements, and law enforcement equipment — none of which align with the code's stated scope of individual diagnostic stethoscope heads. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged or that this code does not currently see meaningful state and local procurement activity in its primary product category.

The solicitations visible in the record span a single concrete sprinkler replacement project (Collin County, Texas, IFB 2026-389, bids due November 19, 2026, estimated cost $150,000), a NASPO ValuePoint cooperative medical supplies master agreement (RFP 1433, proposals due November 9, 2026, sponsored by Idaho with participation across multiple states), and a Sourcewell law enforcement equipment cooperative (RFP 061626, proposals due June 16, 2026). None of these opportunities involve stethoscope procurement, and no state and local governments have posted stethoscope-specific RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs in the recent record. The code shows little relevant recent activity under its actual commodity definition.
