UNSPSC 31163217: Quick disconnect shaft hub locking bushing

Tapered style shaft hub bushing

UNSPSC 31163217 Quick disconnect shaft hub locking bushing (Commodity) covers fastening and coupling hardware that state and local governments procure as components in maintenance, repair, and equipment assembly across departments and utilities. The code sees occasional solicitation activity centered on replacement parts and spare inventory for rotating machinery, pumps, motors, and drive systems in water treatment, wastewater, public works, and facilities management contexts. Issuing bodies include state transportation and water resource departments, county public works and utilities operations, and municipal water and wastewater treatment authorities that maintain centrifugal and reciprocating equipment requiring quick-disconnect coupling assemblies.

The source provided contains no records of recent state and local contract opportunities under this code, making it difficult to characterize geographic concentration or current procurement intensity. Without posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices to draw from, the patterns of activity, response deadlines, and repeat-buyer patterns cannot be assessed. Firms evaluating pursuit under this Commodity code should monitor procurement portals in states with large water and transportation infrastructure portfolios — typically Texas, California, Florida, New York, and Illinois — but should verify current demand through direct outreach to local utilities and public works departments rather than relying on published solicitation history.
