NIGP 84595: Viscosity Testers (Viscometers and Viscosimeters)

NIGP 84595 Viscosity Testers (Viscometers And Viscosimeters), an Item code, covers instruments and equipment used to measure fluid viscosity across industrial, laboratory, and quality-control applications. State and local governments procure viscosity testing equipment primarily through environmental agencies, water utilities, public works departments, and research or diagnostic laboratories operated by health departments and universities. The instruments range from portable field viscometers to bench-top and automated laboratory systems used in water treatment monitoring, wastewater analysis, petrochemical compliance testing, and materials science research.

No recent state or local contract opportunities under NIGP 84595 appear in current procurement activity. The code remains active in the NIGP taxonomy but does not show frequent solicitation volume across state agencies, counties, municipalities, school districts, or transit authorities in the available records.
