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 covering specialized medical sensing equipment connectors and interface cables, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the narrow scope of the code's title. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code — a Sourcewell cooperative RFP for law enforcement equipment and an ITB by the Pinellas County, Florida School Board for general first aid supplies — do not reflect procurement of temperature probes or adapter cables. The law enforcement equipment solicitation and the first aid supplies solicitation (which covers bandages, gauze, gloves, sharps containers, thermometers, and other consumables) suggest that state and local buyers are tagging broader medical and safety equipment acquisitions under this code despite significant nominal scope mismatch.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and Florida, though the Sourcewell cooperative procurement extends availability to participating entities throughout the United States and Canada. Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is issuing RFP #061626 due June 16, 2026, on behalf of its Participating Entities to establish law enforcement equipment contracting solutions available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. Separately, the School Board of Pinellas County, Florida issued ITB #25-CR-069 for first aid supplies with an estimated annual usage of approximately $130,000 and a contract period running February 11, 2026 to February 10, 2027. The code shows limited recent activity genuinely aligned to medical temperature probe adapters and adapter cables as a distinct product line.
