NIGP 06033: Clamps, Hose

NIGP 06033 Clamps, Hose is an Item code under which state and local governments procure hose clamps and related fastening hardware for fleet maintenance, water treatment infrastructure, and utility operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring constant-torque clamps in assorted sizes for automotive repair parts inventory, single-source replacement clamps for water treatment flow-measurement equipment, and standardized hose clamps as components within broader fleet-parts or sewer-maintenance equipment procurements. The work reflects routine operational purchasing rather than specialized procurement; clamps appear as line items within larger automotive or infrastructure maintenance contracts, or as standalone commodity orders with tight turnaround requirements and firm pricing.

Issuing bodies span transit authorities, municipalities, counties, school districts, and water utilities across Florida, Texas, and the broader United States. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (DART) posted a purchase order for constant-torque hose clamps (5/8", 1 1/16"–2" range) on January 22, 2026, due January 29, 2026, requiring FOB Destination delivery and Net 30 payment terms through the BONFIRE registration system. The City of Tampa, on behalf of the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility, issued an Intent to Single Source procurement on March 26, 2026 (response deadline April 1, 2026) for Emerson-Flexim clamps as replacement parts for point-to-point flow measurement equipment; CL2 Solutions was identified as the sole municipality representative for Emerson-Flexim parts in Florida. The City of Tampa Purchasing Department also solicited 50 units each of four hose-clamp sizes (7/16"–1", 1/2"–1-1/4", 5/8"–1-1/2", and 1-5/8"–3-1/2") as part of RFQ 26-P-00454 for Automotive 8D Battery and Supplies, due August 4, 2026. Activity under this code remains episodic and fragmented across jurisdictions, with no standout repeat buyers or geographic concentration evident in recent postings.
