UNSPSC 27111535: Wire scissors

A specialized cutting implement consisting of two hardened steel leaves joined by a swivel pin. Used for cutting wire.

UNSPSC 27111535 Wire scissors is a Commodity code encompassing hand tools for cutting wire and cable in maintenance, facilities, and operational contexts. State and local governments procure wire scissors as part of broader janitorial, operational, and facilities-maintenance supply contracts rather than as standalone line items. The issuing bodies include county governments and public agencies managing facilities with recurring consumable-supply needs, such as fire rescue departments operating multiple stations or complexes that require cutting tools for equipment maintenance, cable management, and general upkeep.

Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB 26-00319 on July 7, 2026, due July 24, 2026, for janitorial and operational supplies to support the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department's 47 fire stations operating 24 hours daily. The contract was estimated at $765,679.84 for one year with no renewal options, with delivery required within 10 days of purchase order receipt to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida. Wire scissors would be included as a consumable cutting tool within this broader supplies award. The source contains only one recent opportunity, limiting visibility into geographic spread or concentration across other jurisdictions.
