UNSPSC 42182214: Medical temperature probe adapters or adapter cables

Adapter used for medical temperature probes

UNSPSC 42182214 Medical temperature probe adapters or adapter cables is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses first aid and medical supply consumables — bandages, gauze, gloves, sanitizer, sharps containers, and thermometers — procured by school districts and state transportation agencies on an as-needed or periodic basis. The code appears in school district ITBs for general first aid stock replenishment and in state health and safety procurement for occupational medical examination support. Issuing bodies include school districts managing central warehouse inventory and state departments operating occupational health programs for employees.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Washington. The School Board of Pinellas County, Florida posted ITB 25CR069 on September 28, 2026 for first aid supplies with a response deadline of November 20, 2025 and an estimated annual spend of approximately $130,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, posted RFP 20260825 on August 25, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services with a response deadline of October 9, 2026. A third opportunity—Sourcewell's cooperative-purchasing RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 deadline—does not align with the code's nominal scope and appears to reflect a tagging mismatch. Geographic spread and issuing-body diversity remain limited based on available recent solicitations; the code does not show broad state and local procurement activity.
