UNSPSC 26101768: Turbine shaft

The turbine shaft is the very important part of the turbine. The simplest turbines have one moving part, a rotor assembly, which is a shaft with blades attached.

UNSPSC 26101768 Turbine shaft is a Commodity code encompassing replacement drive shaft units and related installation services procured by state and local water utilities for critical treatment-plant equipment. The City of Holly Hill, Florida recently solicited a replacement drive shaft for softener equipment at its Water Treatment Plant through a sole source procurement notice, illustrating the core scope: specialized rotating equipment manufactured by a single vendor, installed to replace aging or failed units within existing treatment infrastructure. These procurements typically bundle both the shaft unit itself and comprehensive turnkey installation services, including equipment removal, site preparation, precision installation, calibration, and startup support. Water treatment plants represent the primary issuing body under this code at the state and local level, as the equipment is mission-critical to potable-water production and replacement cycles drive recurring solicitation activity.

The Holly Hill opportunity posted October 19, 2026, with a City Commission adoption date of September 22, 2020, solicited a WesTech DS43 Dual Shaft Drive (Model No. DV8026) manufactured exclusively by WesTech Engineering, Inc., valued at $113,067.00 total ($79,159.00 equipment, $33,908.00 installation). The sole source nature of the procurement limited competition to the exclusive manufacturer; Moss-Kelley, Inc. was identified as the authorized WesTech municipal representative in the area. The scope included site mobilization, removal of the existing 2008-vintage drive unit, installation of dual motor systems (1.5 HP rake motor and 7.5 HP impeller motor), precision bearings, stainless steel weatherproof enclosure, and epoxy-coated steel drive base with 15,000 AGMA 20-year continuous torque capacity, along with startup service. Funding came from the Birmingham Avenue Water Main Replacement Capital Project budget for fiscal year 2020-2021. The source records limited recent activity under this code, with only one documented state-local opportunity in the dataset.
