UNSPSC 23241639: Taper shank drill

A type of drill designed for maximum performance when drilling a wide variety of materials where the driving machinery has a taper shank arbor or spindle.

UNSPSC 23241639 Taper shank drill, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—seeks to establish a cooperative purchasing agreement for law enforcement equipment, not drilling tools. The solicitation spans a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle (Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit) serving thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada, but the law enforcement equipment scope does not align with taper shank drills as a product category. The mismatch suggests the code may have been misapplied to this opportunity or that state and local procurement databases are capturing tangential relationships between drilling equipment and law enforcement tools.

No representative recent opportunities directly soliciting taper shank drills or related boring and drilling tools appear in the available source material. The disconnect between the code's product definition and the single tagged solicitation signals that taper shank drills may see limited recent state and local procurement activity, or that opportunities in this category are not being tagged consistently with the UNSPSC code structure. Business development professionals should verify whether state and local end users in target jurisdictions have active drilling-tool requirements before committing resources to this code.
