UNSPSC 25174816: Linkage clevis assembly

A U-shaped or horseshoe shaped assembly consisting of a connector and a pin. The clevis is used in many linkage applications that provides a secure yet easily removable link where both transfer of force and rotation in the link is necessary.

UNSPSC 25174816 Linkage clevis assembly is a Commodity code that does not reflect material recent state and local procurement activity. One of two records in the most-recent opportunities block is a notice of relocation for Williamson County Purchasing Department and does not constitute a solicitation. The other thirteen records—spanning fleet vehicle and equipment parts agreements, automotive batteries, tire services, bus parts, DPF cleaning, heavy-duty truck components, and alternators and starters—are tagged with UNSPSC 25174816 but do not match the code's nominal scope. The City of Eugene RFP for fleet vehicle and equipment parts, Texas A&M ITB for aftermarket auto parts, TxDOT's brine sprayer kits and parts solicitation, and related opportunities address broad vehicle maintenance and repair supplies, not the specific mechanical linkage assembly the code describes. State and local procurement activity under this code appears minimal or misaligned with the taxonomy label.

The issuing bodies soliciting vehicle parts and fleet maintenance services span municipal departments (City of Eugene, City of Gainesville, City of Orlando, City of Philadelphia, City of Dallas, City of Atlanta), county governments (Brevard County, Collier County, Jackson County, Pinellas County, San Bernardino County, Williamson County, Columbia County), school districts (Parkway School District, Pinellas County School District, Rockwood School District, Sarasota County Schools, Seminole County Public Schools), state agencies (Texas A&M University, Texas Department of Transportation, Kentucky Department of Military Affairs, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell, Greater Oregon Fleet Cooperative). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Eugene RFP 20272006 for a fleet vehicle and equipment parts price agreement with response due August 6, 2026, the Texas A&M ITB for aftermarket auto parts and accessories with bids due July 21, 2026, and Pinellas County School District's sealed bid for alternators and starters with responses due March 24, 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Florida, Missouri, Georgia, and Kentucky, with cooperative procurement extending availability nationwide. The mismatch between the linkage clevis assembly commodity code and the actual fleet parts solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or minimal genuine demand for this specific component through public contracting channels.
