UNSPSC 20121719: Overshot packer

Special sealing element in overshot tool.

UNSPSC 20121719 Overshot packer (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement as a narrow refrigerant-extraction component, though the recent solicitation activity under this code does not align with the component's nominal scope. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP 240011 for Gas Extraction and Removal services—seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, with extraction required every two weeks minimum and documentation of gas destruction or recycling required. The Sourcewell cooperative procurement RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026, with response due June 16, 2026, shows no connection to overshot packers or refrigerant recovery. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; the Tucson opportunity addresses gas extraction services and compliance rather than the sale or supply of packer components themselves.

Geographic concentration of relevant activity is limited to Arizona (Tucson) in the recent record. The issuing bodies are sparse: the City of Tucson represents municipal procurement, while Sourcewell's law enforcement cooperative spans multiple Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) and claims nationwide and Canadian participating entities, but this opportunity lies outside the code's nominal scope. No standing pattern of repeat buyers, set-aside designations, or incumbent contractors emerges from the available data. The mismatch between the code's component classification and the service-oriented Tucson solicitation, combined with the unrelated law enforcement cooperative opportunity, suggests this code does not currently reflect active state and local procurement of overshot packers or closely related products.
