UNSPSC 25171719: Brake booster

UNSPSC 25171719 Brake booster is a Commodity code covering replacement and remanufactured brake system components for municipal and school district vehicle fleets, including booster units, master cylinders, calipers, wheel cylinders, pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses, and hardware kits certified by original equipment manufacturers with factory warranties. State and local governments procure these parts through school districts, transit and port authorities, and county purchasing departments to maintain light-duty passenger and truck fleets as well as heavy-duty transit and commercial vehicle systems. Recent solicitations show brake components bundled with other brake system parts under consolidated purchasing agreements that specify factory-approval and OEM certification requirements, often with geographic supplier restrictions tied to fleet maintenance hubs and F.O.B. delivery terms locked to multiple facilities.

Activity under this code concentrates in Florida and the Pacific Northwest, with the largest recent opportunity posted by Pinellas County School District (Pinellas County Schools, Florida) in an ITB for Motor Vehicle Brake Parts issued July 27, 2026 with bids due August 24, 2026, covering approximately $190,000 annually for two vehicle classes across a one-year initial term with optional renewals. The district restricted suppliers to a 40-mile radius of the Walter Pownall Service Center, applied a Florida preference to out-of-state bids, and reserved the right to split awards by section or item. A second brake-related opportunity appeared in Broward County's June 2026 RFI contesting sole-source designation for Bubenzer brake systems and rail clamps at Port Everglades, though that scope targets specialized industrial equipment rather than vehicle fleet components. Sourcewell's May 2026 law enforcement equipment cooperative RFP spanning Washington and adjacent counties does not detail brake components in available documentation. Geographic concentration in Florida school and county fleets appears strongest in the most recent activity; broader multistate competitive procurement through cooperatives has not yet surfaced brake boosters as a discrete line item.
