UNSPSC 42293407: Ureteral or urethral filiforms

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a ureteral or urethral filiform during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901920.

UNSPSC 42293407 Ureteral or urethral filiforms is a Commodity code that maps poorly to the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, ventilator maintenance, law enforcement equipment, intraosseous infusion systems, career technical education resources, ultrasound machines, and spinal implants—bear no clear relationship to urethral filiforms, which are specialized urological medical devices. The code shows no recent solicitations for the product its name describes; instead, issuing bodies across multiple states and institutional types (counties, school districts, universities, and health systems) are using this code to tag broadly disparate medical equipment, educational supplies, and emergency response gear. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding at the point of entry or a jurisdictional tagging convention that does not align with UNSPSC's intended hierarchy.

The recent opportunities originate from San Mateo County (California), Hillsborough County (Florida), Sourcewell (Minnesota-based cooperative serving multiple western states and nationwide), Marion County (Florida), Klein Independent School District (Texas), Valencia College (Florida), and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. The geographic spread spans California, Florida, Texas, and multi-state cooperative purchasing through Sourcewell, with no concentration in any single region. Response dates in the recent block range from May 2026 through June 2026. Because the code's nominal scope does not match the actual work being solicited, this code is not a reliable signal for procurement activity in urological medical devices or related supplies.
