UNSPSC 42203420: Vascular imaging snares

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an endovascular device that is used to remove foreign bodies from inside arteries and veins. The snare consists of several radiopaque loops of wire inside a catheter, which when extended flower out, and which collapse when withdrawn into the catheter in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42203420 Vascular imaging snares, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single identified opportunity—Sourcewell RFP #061626 posted May 12, 2026 with response due June 16, 2026—is a law enforcement equipment solicitation that does not match vascular medical device procurement. The RFP, issued on behalf of Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative) and open to participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and jurisdictions across the United States and Canada, seeks to establish a framework for law enforcement equipment available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K–12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. No set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, or award values are identified in the available documentation. Vendors must submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, with questions directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930.

The code does not demonstrate active state and local procurement of vascular imaging snares or related medical devices in recent postings. The single opportunity tagged to this code represents a categorical mismatch—law enforcement equipment procurement bears no relation to vascular imaging instruments or their typical end users in health systems, diagnostic centers, or hospital procurement offices. Activity under this code warrants close monitoring, as the current signal is insufficient to support near-term business development pursuit.
