UNSPSC 27112157: Drill vise

A machine vise that can be connected to the top of a drilling machine table. It uses a rectangular screw or trapezoid screw as feed screw.

UNSPSC 27112157 Drill vise, a Commodity code, describes the procurement of drill vises — clamping devices that secure workpieces during drilling operations — by state and local government buyers. The code sees solicitation from a mix of issuing bodies including county maintenance and operations departments, municipal public works divisions, school district maintenance shops, and state transportation and facilities agencies. Drill vises appear in requests for shop equipment, tool inventory replenishment, and facility maintenance support across jurisdictions that maintain their own vehicle fleets, equipment repair bays, and carpentry or fabrication shops. The equipment is typically acquired through competitive bids or cooperative purchasing vehicles, often bundled with other small tools or precision clamping hardware as part of broader shop equipment procurements.

The source contains no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this Commodity code. Without posted solicitations identifying specific issuing bodies, response dates, or geographic concentration, the pattern of activity under this code cannot be characterized from current market data. Firms pursuing this category should monitor cooperative purchasing catalogs and standing-term contracts through national MRO and tool suppliers, which often serve as the primary procurement vehicles for routine shop equipment across state and local agencies.
