UNSPSC 27111613: Non sparking hatchet

A type of hatchet made of a specific alloy, usually a combination of beryllium and copper or bronze and aluminum appropriate for use in environments with high explosive risk such as chemical plants, power stations, gas and oil distribution lines, etc.

UNSPSC 27111613 Non sparking hatchet is a Commodity code representing hand tools and protective equipment sourced by state and local fire departments and public-safety agencies, though recent procurement activity under this code shows limited specificity to the hatchet itself. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB2600319 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies supporting the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department, a 47-station operation running 24/7; the solicitation encompasses a broad range of consumable supplies across multiple categories rather than focusing on non-sparking hatchets as a discrete line item. The code appears to sit within a larger commodity grouping that state and local procurement offices use to tag mixed fire-department and public-safety consumables. Issuing bodies under this code include county purchasing offices managing centralized procurement for regional fire-rescue operations, though the recent activity block provides no additional examples that would clarify whether other municipalities, state fire agencies, or special-purpose districts also solicit under this Commodity code.

Geographic activity centers on Florida, specifically the Tampa Bay area, where Hillsborough County is the identified recent buyer. The ITB2600319 opportunity closed on July 24, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for one year and no renewal options specified. Delivery is required within 10 days of purchase order receipt for standard orders and five business days for emergency orders, coordinated with the County Project Manager and staged between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. EST Monday through Friday to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa. The source provides no additional recent opportunities under this Commodity code outside Hillsborough County, limiting visibility into broader geographic or issuing-body patterns.
