UNSPSC 27111924: Rasp cut file

A type of file based on tooth configuration. A file's teeth can range from rough, coarse and bastard (meaning intermediate) to second-cut, smooth and dead smooth. Rasp files have furrows made by straight cuts of a chisel, either single or crossed and have coarse, single teeth, raised by the pyramidal end of a triangular punch with various cuts.

UNSPSC 27111924 Rasp cut file is a Commodity code covering hand files and rasps used in manual metalworking, finishing, and fabrication operations across state and local government shops and maintenance facilities. State and local procurement agencies buy these tools for in-house mechanical shops, maintenance departments, and skilled-trade programs where workers shape, smooth, and finish metal workpieces by hand — a routine consumable in municipal equipment maintenance, school district vocational programs, and county or state facility repair shops. The code encompasses single rasps, assorted file sets, and bulk tool supplies sourced through both direct procurement and cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies include county facilities maintenance departments, city public works divisions, state equipment shops, and school districts operating vocational or automotive programs.

The source contains no recent state or local contract opportunities posted under this code. Without posted solicitations, current market activity under UNSPSC 27111924 cannot be characterized by geography or issuing-body concentration. Vendors pursuing rasp-and-file procurement should monitor cooperative purchasing catalogs and standing-supply agreements at state procurement offices, as rasp-file buying often flows through blanket-purchase or catalog-order vehicles rather than individual RFPs or ITBs.
