UNSPSC 41111617: Feeler gauges

UNSPSC 41111617 Feeler gauges (Commodity) covers precision measurement tools that state and local governments procure for maintenance, inspection, and quality-control work across vehicle fleets, infrastructure assets, and equipment inventories. Feeler gauges—thin metal strips or sets of strips used to measure gaps, clearances, and tolerances in mechanical assemblies—appear in state transportation departments' fleet maintenance specifications, county public works shops, municipal vehicle maintenance facilities, and school district bus maintenance programs. The code captures both individual gauge sets and bulk purchases for equipment calibration and troubleshooting in field and shop environments.

The recent-opportunities block contains no postings under this code, indicating minimal state and local procurement activity in this commodity segment at present. Feeler gauges typically enter state and local purchasing as line items within broader vehicle maintenance, equipment repair, or general maintenance supply contracts rather than as standalone solicitations. Business development professionals should monitor this code as part of a broader industrial maintenance or fleet-services portfolio but should not expect dedicated RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs dedicated solely to feeler gauges at the state or local level in the near term.
