UNSPSC 27112842: Hand drill bit for wood

Drill bit designed specifically for drilling in wood reducing the chipping, tear out, and burning caused by high-speed metal drill bits

UNSPSC 27112842 Hand drill bit for wood is a Commodity code that encompasses individual drill bits and bits included as components within larger hand tool and master tool set procurements. State and local governments buy drill bits primarily as part of comprehensive tool packages for facility and fleet maintenance operations, rather than as standalone purchases. The recent solicitation activity shows procurement of drill bits embedded within broader master tool sets and individual hand tool line items used by maintenance departments, garages, and field operations. Issuing bodies include state procurement offices managing cooperative purchasing systems, county commissioners, and transportation departments. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division operates the Texas SmartBuy cooperative system, which aggregates procurement across multiple state agencies and institutions of higher education; Hillsborough County operates independent purchasing for county operations.

Activity under this code concentrates in Texas and Florida, based on recent opportunities posted in June 2026. The Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-445A1, due June 11, 2026, procures master tool sets containing 29 minimum drill bits as part of a 1,152-piece minimum set for TxDOT and other state agencies through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative, with evaluation weighted toward pricing (30 points), respondent qualifications and experience (30 points), and product quality and availability (40 points). Hillsborough County's ITB 26-00285, due June 23, 2026, includes drill bits as part of a 52-line-item hand tool procurement with an estimated contract value of $715,540.41 over five years; this is an open-market competitive sealed bid to a single lowest responsive bidder with five-business-day delivery required to various county warehouse locations. Neither solicitation isolates drill bit pricing or volume, limiting visibility into pure commodity demand under the code.
