UNSPSC 20121521: Downhole shock absorber parts and accessories

Parts and accessories for an apparatus that absorbs shock downhole in a wellbore. The kinetic energy from a moving tool is absorbed to dissipate such energy, to decelerate the moving tool, or to prevent impact damage from contact between the tool and other downhole components.

UNSPSC 20121521 Downhole shock absorber parts and accessories is a Commodity code that addresses specialized equipment components used in law enforcement and tactical operations. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the nominal scope — the single recent solicitation tagged to this code concerns broad law enforcement equipment procurement rather than downhole shock absorber parts specifically, suggesting either miscoding or a very narrow application within tactical equipment portfolios that state and local agencies are currently sourcing.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 seeking law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, with the contract structure available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The response deadline was June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. The solicitation does not identify set-asides, budget ranges, or specific award values. This code shows limited recent state and local activity overall, and the available opportunity does not provide clear visibility into actual downhole shock absorber demand within state and local procurement channels.
