UNSPSC 23251507: Wing bender

UNSPSC 23251507 Wing bender (Commodity) encompasses specialized precision metalworking equipment and replacement parts purchased by state universities, school districts, and state transportation departments. Recent solicitations show the code applies to both new equipment acquisitions and OEM component replenishment for existing machinery. Texas A&M University System has posted three ITBs since late June 2026 for CNC equipment, a CNC lathe and machining center, and machine shop and fabrication equipment. The School Board of Polk County, Florida solicited an integrated CNC training solution including a desktop and industrial lathe with simulator and tooling through a Request for Vendor Response. Texas State Technical College issued an RFP for Wire Electrical Discharge Machines with a one-year base term and four optional renewals, valued above $100,000, requiring a mandatory Subcontracting Plan. The State of California posted an RFB for a shearing machine (Asset 700-26272/HN26-1166/KM19-84613) due March 10, 2026. The Texas Department of Transportation posted two ITBs (May 2026 and June 2026) for OEM replacement parts for a Cincinnati Shear machine at its Production Shop in Austin, covering 23 line items of mechanical components including bearings, gaskets, seals, springs, clutches, and various assemblies with delivery to 5501 FM 973, Austin, TX 78724.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. Texas A&M University System continues to be a repeat buyer under this code, with three open solicitations as of late June 2026 on the AggieBid procurement platform. TxDOT has posted consecutive ITBs for Cincinnati Shear OEM parts with response deadlines in April and June 2026, both evaluated on best value criteria under Texas Government Code 2155.074. California and Florida have posted individual acquisitions but do not show repeat activity in the current window. The code shows modest but steady demand for precision machining equipment and wear-part replenishment across higher education, vocational training, state transportation, and county composting operations; Hillsborough County's sole-source award to Powerscreen of Florida for five-year maintenance of Komptech composting equipment ($1,992,824.18 total value) demonstrates the cost profile for ongoing service and parts contracts in this class.
