UNSPSC 23153703: Hydraulic tensioning system tools

Hydraulic tensioning systems are hydraulic tools that use stretching to tighten studs. Once a stud is stretched, a nut is then put on the joint. Then the load on the stud is removed resulting in a clamping force on the now bolted joint.

UNSPSC 23153703 Hydraulic tensioning system tools is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reveal little activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The single substantive recent opportunity—the City of Phoenix Public Works Department IFB 27-FSD-0353 for hydraulic hose repair and replacement services, due August 13, 2026—involves mobile on-site repair and replacement of hydraulic hoses, paint hoses, fittings, and associated hardware for medium-duty, heavy-duty, and construction equipment fleets, with service provided primarily during off-hours at multiple city service centers and aviation facilities. The remaining opportunities in the dataset concern automotive and truck parts supply (Freightliner parts for TxDOT, bus OEM parts for Parkway School District, automotive light truck parts for Sarasota County Schools), heavy equipment hydraulic system parts and repair (County of Sacramento RFP 2026-RFP-0032 for hydraulic cylinder, pump, valve, and hose components and services, estimated annual value $1.2 million), GE 230KV breaker fluid and pressure switch repair (Kissimmee Utility Authority sole-source procurement), general fleet maintenance and heavy equipment repair (Seminole County RFP-5089-25/LAS, Brevard County just-in-time inventory management for fleet parts, City of Atlanta hydraulic cylinder and hose repair SOQ), and equipment purchases (scissor lift for Augusta Transit, heavy-duty trailers for City of Atlanta), none of which specifically target hydraulic tensioning system tools.

The issuing bodies span state transportation departments (TxDOT), counties (Seminole, Brevard, Sacramento, Kissimmee), cities (Phoenix, Atlanta, Augusta), school districts (Parkway, Sarasota County), and utility authorities (Kissimmee). Geographic activity clusters in Arizona (Phoenix), California (Sacramento), Florida (Seminole, Brevard, Kissimmee, Sarasota), Georgia (Atlanta, Augusta), Texas (TxDOT), and Missouri (Parkway). The code shows minimal recent procurement activity focused on hydraulic tensioning system tools specifically; the dataset contains no opportunities explicitly requesting or specifying such tools as line items or deliverables. Vendors evaluating this code should recognize the mismatch between the nominal commodity classification and actual current procurement activity, which centers instead on broader hydraulic repair services, component supply, and fleet maintenance—categories that may fall under different or higher-tier UNSPSC families.
