UNSPSC 41111644: Pin gauge

A measurement gauge that is used to determine the accurate angle of the workpiece.

UNSPSC 41111644 Pin gauge is a Commodity code, but state and local governments soliciting under it in recent months have been purchasing precision laser scanning systems, distance meters, radar systems, and surveying equipment—metrology and measurement instruments broadly—rather than pin gauges per se. The Illinois Department of Transportation has posted two separate bids (one original, one rebid) for high-precision handheld 3D laser scanning systems with 0.025 mm accuracy and blue laser technology for pavement analysis at the Illinois Certification and Research Track; the University of Texas at Austin's Cockrell School of Engineering solicited bids for Leica TS-60 total stations and geodetic-grade surveying equipment to conduct precision surveys at McDonald Observatory; and the City of Pennsylvania and Marion County, Florida have issued smaller micro purchases for a 150-foot laser distance meter and a Stalker 2X Motorcycle Radar System, respectively. The issuing bodies span state transportation departments, municipal procurement offices, county sheriff's offices, and university engineering schools. The City of Philadelphia also issued a micro purchase for inspection supplies, though the specific items are not detailed and the link to this code's scope is unclear.

Activity concentrates in Illinois, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Florida. IDOT's rebid for the 3D laser scanning system (Solicitation 27494DOTFINADB53879) closed September 25, 2026, requiring vendors to provide proof of authorized dealer status and ISO 17025-accredited laboratory certification per VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 and ISO 10360 standards; the University of Texas ITB 721-26091 for the TS-60 and metrology equipment closed June 30, 2026 and allows group purchasing by other UT System institutions. The City of Pennsylvania's 150-foot laser distance meter procurement (B2727841) closed September 8, 2026 as a micro purchase open to all bidders. Marion County's sole-source Stalker 2X radar procurements (26SS-108) closed July 13, 2026 with Applied Concepts, Inc. identified as the sole manufacturer. Vendors pursuing this code should note that IDOT specifies newly manufactured equipment only, prohibits remanufactured or reconditioned items, and requires factory or dealer-provided training at delivery; the University of Texas procurement allows use by other UT System institutions under group purchasing authority.
