UNSPSC 31171522: Magnetic bearings

UNSPSC 31171522 Magnetic bearings is a Commodity code that encompasses rotating and fixed magnetic bearing assemblies used in industrial equipment, HVAC systems, pumps, motors, and facility infrastructure. State and local governments procure magnetic bearings as replacement and maintenance components to support ongoing operations of mechanical systems across diverse facilities—water treatment plants, utilities, transit depots, and administrative buildings. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county facilities management departments and special-purpose districts managing large capital equipment portfolios.

Recent activity is sparse. San Bernardino County Project & Facilities Management issued ITB 6391 on May 18, 2026, for parts and supplies to support facility maintenance and repair operations, with a June 19, 2026 response deadline. The procurement encompassed over 500 line items across multiple categories including motors and pumps (bearing-relevant components) but did not isolate magnetic bearings as a discrete procurement line. No other recent state or local magnetic-bearing solicitations appear in the available record. The code shows limited current activity in state and local procurement; most magnetic-bearing procurement at the local level appears to occur as subordinate line items within broader facility maintenance and parts supply contracts rather than as standalone component procurements.
