UNSPSC 27131513: Pneumatic file

A handle-shaped tool designed to hold file bit inserts that can be in several forms. The device makes the file bit move automatically backwards and forwards.

UNSPSC 27131513 Pneumatic file is a Commodity code. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent alignment with the code's nominal scope. The six recent opportunities posted between April and October 2026 span building demolition, dumpster enclosure design-build, bridge replacement, roundabout construction, water treatment plant upgrades, and streetscape improvements—none of which involve pneumatic files as traditionally defined. The lone tangential reference appears in the City of Philadelphia's August 2026 micro-purchase for jackhammers, which are power tools used in demolition but not pneumatic files per se. This mismatch suggests the code has been applied inconsistently in state and local procurement systems, or the opportunities in the block are not representative of typical purchasing under this Commodity.

Issuing bodies posting under this code include municipal governments (City of Philadelphia, City of Marietta, City of Union City, City of Brownsville, City of Lavonia) and special-purpose districts (Orange County Florida, Santa Clara County, Atlanta Beltline, Inc.). Geographic activity spans Georgia (Marietta, Union City, Lavonia, Atlanta), Florida (Orange County), Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), Texas (Brownsville), and California (Santa Clara County). Recent notice types include RFB (sealed bid for public works), RFP and design-build RFQ formats, and micro-purchase quotes. Given the disconnect between the code's title and recent solicitation scope, state and local procurement professionals should verify UNSPSC coding directly with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this Commodity—the classification does not reliably signal pneumatic-file demand in current market activity.
