UNSPSC 27111955: Round shank bridge reamer

A type of reamer designed for lining up holes in structural steel fabrication bridgework, ship construction, automotive maintenance, and railroad car manufacture.

UNSPSC 27111955 Round shank bridge reamer is a Commodity code covering specialized drilling tools, though recent state and local procurement activity under this specific code focuses more broadly on hand tool supply contracts rather than precision reamers. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying hand tools on an as-needed, annual renewal basis — hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, pry bars, shovels, and related mechanic and maintenance implements — with orders typically placed against master supply agreements. Issuing bodies include city governments, county commissions, and state procurement divisions managing enterprise-wide cooperative purchasing systems for multiple agencies and institutions of higher education. The City of Augusta, Georgia and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) have posted recent ITBs for hand tool supply contracts, while the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts is procuring through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative system on behalf of the Texas Department of Transportation and other state agencies.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Florida, and Texas. The City of Augusta, Georgia issued ITB 27-001 Hand Tools with sealed bids due September 29, 2026, covering 39 line items of hand tools with fixed pricing and optional annual renewals. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued ITB-26-00285 Hand Tools with bids due June 23, 2026, for 52 line items across a five-year term estimated at $715,540.41, allowing CPI-U-based annual price adjustments and five-business-day delivery to county warehouse locations.
