UNSPSC 31171518: Bearing cage

UNSPSC 31171518 Bearing cage is a Commodity code that encompasses individual bearing cage components and assemblies procured by state and local governments for facility maintenance, equipment repair, and mechanical system upkeep. The code sees use across county facilities management departments and municipal maintenance operations. State and local buyers use bearing cages as replacement parts within motors, pumps, rotating equipment, and industrial machinery across their facility portfolios.

Recent opportunities under this code are sparse. San Bernardino County Project & Facilities Management issued ITB 6391 in May 2026 for Parts & Supplies, a formal invitation to bid covering over 500 line items organized across multiple categories including motors and pumps — the category under which bearing cages would typically fall — with a response deadline of June 19, 2026 and a tentative contract start of July 1, 2026. The procurement required bidders to submit pricing on a minimum of 20 items from the provided list, with delivery within 14 days of purchase order receipt and Net 60 payment terms. San Bernardino County offered a local vendor preference of 5 percent for vendors with principal place of business within county boundaries. Beyond this single representative bid, the available record shows no other active state or local solicitations specifically calling out bearing cages as a line item or prime procurement focus, suggesting limited near-term demand signals under this code.
