UNSPSC 60104617: Tensile modulus apparatus

Devices to experiment Young's modulus, the ratio of extension and transformation of an object when it is extended under tension.

UNSPSC 60104617 Tensile modulus apparatus is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are entirely unrelated to tensile modulus apparatus — they concern instructional materials (reading and video content, teaching supplies, STEM kits), science consumables (preserved specimens, chemicals, live cultures), and educational equipment (robotics, 3D printers, book vending machines). None of these solicitations actually procure testing, measurement, or materials-science apparatus. The code appears to be a technical taxonomy entry for laboratory or engineering equipment that does not align with the educational purchasing landscape where most state and local procurement under this tag actually occurs.

The geographic activity shown in the source is concentrated in Texas school districts (Harlingen Consolidated ISD, Katy ISD) and extends to Arizona, Florida, and Georgia school districts and consortia, but the scope mismatch is decisive — these are K-12 and higher-education instructors buying classroom and laboratory supplies, not state or local agencies, universities, or testing labs acquiring tensile modulus apparatus for materials characterization or quality assurance. If your firm manufactures or distributes tensile modulus apparatus for academic, municipal, or transit applications, this code does not currently reflect active demand in the state and local space.
