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, a Commodity code, encompasses fastening hardware and specialized clamping devices that state and local governments procure for maintenance, construction, facility repair, and equipment assembly work. Recent solicitations show the code picking up industrial and mechanical maintenance applications — notably telecom and HVAC equipment assembly, door hardware and lock systems, traffic sign infrastructure, anchoring components for marine facilities, and consumable shop supplies used in state-supported living centers and public works departments.

Issuing bodies span Texas state agencies (primarily the Health and Human Services Commission procuring for multiple state-supported living centers), city governments (Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Austin), and county authorities (Hillsborough County in Florida, Marion County in Indiana). Texas HHS dominates recent activity, posting multiple IFBs for blanket-order maintenance and construction supply contracts. The City of Philadelphia and City of Indianapolis are repeat micro-purchase and bid solicitors. Recent opportunities include the City of Indianapolis and Marion County Purchasing Division RFB-14DPW-1817 for traffic sign hardware (brackets, cantilever arms, bollards, aluminum flat bars) with bids due October 15, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017595 V2 for telecom parts and tools (power tools, drill bits, fasteners, test equipment) due October 2, 2026; the City of Philadelphia micro-purchase for anchoring and buoy components due October 8, 2026; and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners ITB-26-00319 for janitorial and operational supplies to Fire Rescue operations with an estimated value of $765,679.84 and bids due July 24, 2026. Geographically, Texas leads with concentrated HHS procurement across multiple state facilities, followed by activity in Florida (Hillsborough County), Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), Indiana (Indianapolis), and Oregon (cooperative purchasing notices). No single private contractor emerges as incumbent across these opportunities; contracts typically award to lowest responsive bidder on price and specification compliance with local set-aside and preference programs applying where jurisdictional policy requires (MBE, WBE, VBE, DOBE in Indiana; HUB certification in Texas; Small Business Preference in Austin; optional LGBTQ certification in Philadelphia).
