UNSPSC 31171900: Sprockets

UNSPSC 31171900 Sprockets is a Class code that in recent state and local activity covers industrial gearbox components, drivetrain assemblies, and related mechanical power-transmission equipment installed in municipal infrastructure systems. The code appears in solicitations for replacement or retrofit of gearbox assemblies in water treatment, wastewater reclamation, and utility systems where precise mechanical specifications and compatibility with existing equipment drive procurement. Issuing bodies include county governments (Hillsborough County, DeKalb County) and state resource agencies (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife), procuring through ITQ, ITB, and intermediate procurement notice types for single-unit or multi-unit purchases of specified gearbox models and associated components.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Florida and Oregon. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife solicited Hub City gearbox assemblies and paddlewheel components for the John Day Screen Shop under intermediate procurement (due June 11, 2026). Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITQ for two Dodge Torque-Arm II speed reducers and four taper bushing kits for the Northwest Water Reclamation Facility near Tampa, with a project estimate of $30,400 and delivery by 30 days after purchase order (due May 8, 2026). DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076 (due July 13, 2026) for DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction included IT and low-voltage infrastructure work that does not align with the sprockets code's mechanical scope, suggesting a tagging mismatch. Recent procurements emphasize exact model specifications with no substitutions accepted, fixed delivery locations, and compliance with vendor registration and E-Verify requirements.
