UNSPSC 27111540: Tile bit

A specialized bit for drilling ceramic tile and glass. It has a ground tungsten carbide tip.

UNSPSC 27111540 Tile bit, a Commodity code, covers hand tools supplied on an as-needed and ongoing basis to state and local government maintenance and operations teams. State and local buyers under this code procure sets and individual hand tools—hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers, shovels, pry bars, saws, and related implements—typically with exact brand-name or equivalent specifications, often bundled into master tool sets for fleet and facility maintenance operations. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices, county boards of commissioners, and state agencies acting through centralized cooperative purchasing vehicles. The mix spans cities, counties, and state-level entities; no single repeat buyer emerges from recent postings, but the code shows activity across general-purpose municipal purchasing, county-wide operations, and statewide cooperative procurement for transportation and higher-education institutions.

Recent opportunities include the City of Augusta, Georgia's ITB 27-001 Hand Tools (response due September 29, 2026) for 39 line items of tools supplied on an as-needed basis under a one-year term with optional renewals, the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' ITB-26-00285 Hand Tools (response due June 23, 2026) for 52 line items of branded hand tools with an estimated contract value of $715,540.41 over five years, and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Invitation for Bid 304T-26-445A1 issued for the Texas Department of Transportation and other state entities through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative purchasing system (response due June 11, 2026), procuring master tool sets containing a minimum of 1,152 pieces and individual hand and power tools with ten-year warranty requirements and statewide delivery. Activity is concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia and Florida) and Texas; recent postings show municipal and county governments and state transportation departments as the primary buyers.
