UNSPSC 31162910: Drill clamp

A type of holding device designed to keep drilling tools in place and immobile. It can include claws for better support.

UNSPSC 31162910 Drill clamp is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The source includes nine recent solicitations across Texas health and human services agencies, Hillsborough County (Florida), the City of Austin, Sourcewell (Minnesota cooperative), the Illinois Department of Corrections, Donna Independent School District (Texas), and others; however, only one opportunity—the Illinois Department of Corrections' Hobart Wash Arm Assembly procurement (posted April 20, 2026, due April 23, 2026)—involves a hardware component that could plausibly relate to drill clamping or similar fastening equipment. The remaining eight opportunities span telecom parts and tools, HVAC equipment and refrigerants, janitorial supplies, audio parts for station alerting systems, law enforcement equipment, door and lock hardware services, and general hardware and lumber catalog discounts. None of these scopes center on drill clamps or drilling-related tools as primary deliverables.

The geographic activity is concentrated in Texas (five opportunities), with secondary activity in Florida, Minnesota (cooperative purchasing), Illinois, and Colorado. Recent issuers include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple solicitations for HVAC parts, telecom parts, and door hardware services), Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners (janitorial supplies, $765,679.84 estimated value), Donna ISD (hardware and lumber catalog bid for 2026–2027), and the City of Austin (audio parts for station alerting, IFB DCG1036, due July 14, 2026). The code shows little relevant procurement activity aligned with drill clamping equipment; the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a classification error in the source data or that drill clamps are not a current priority for state and local government procurement.
