UNSPSC 42321710: Femoral modular hip component adapters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a femoral modular hip component adapter in a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902129.

UNSPSC 42321710 Femoral modular hip component adapters, a Commodity code, shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes orthopedic implant components, yet the recent opportunities recorded against it encompass furniture procurement for a healthcare facility, orthopedic hardware extraction system services, law enforcement equipment cooperative purchasing, and career and technical education instructional resources. Only one of the four recent opportunities—San Mateo Medical Center's orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services solicitation—relates directly to orthopedic surgery, and that work focuses on hardware retrieval and extraction support rather than implant component manufacturing or supply. The furniture, law enforcement, and education solicitations appear to have been incorrectly tagged or categorized.

The code shows little relevant recent activity for the orthopedic implant component adapter market. San Mateo County's June 2026 RFP for orthopedic extraction services, due July 1, 2026, represents the only substantive orthopedic procurement in the available records; it requires ISO 13485 certification, five years of acute-care hospital extraction system experience, and compatibility with multiple implant manufacturers, with service and technical support available in Northern California, a three-year term, and evaluation weighted toward project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points). The California State Department of General Services furniture RFB (RFBIS27200016, due July 28, 2026) and Sourcewell's law enforcement equipment cooperative RFP (due June 16, 2026) are unrelated to this code's stated scope. Issuing bodies that do procure under this code appear limited to public healthcare systems, but the available data provide insufficient basis for characterizing active buying patterns or geographic concentration in the orthopedic implant adapter segment.
