UNSPSC 27111708: Pipe wrenches

UNSPSC 27111708 Pipe wrenches is a Commodity code that captures hand tools for plumbing and mechanical work, but the recent state and local solicitation activity under this code shows little alignment with the nominal scope. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB 26-00319 on July 7, 2026, requesting consumable janitorial and operational supplies for the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department with a response deadline of July 24, 2026 and an estimated contract value of $765,679.84. The bid scope encompasses cleaning compounds, paper products, safety supplies, and related consumables for 47 fire stations operating continuously — a category plainly distinct from pipe wrenches or related hand tools. The mismatch between the code designation and the actual solicitation content suggests either a cataloging variance in how Hillsborough County tagged the opportunity or a misclassification in the source data.

The single recent opportunity on record identifies Hillsborough County, Florida as an issuing body. No other jurisdictions or issuing bodies appear in the available recent-opportunities block, and no geographic pattern across multiple states or procurement bodies can be established. The code shows minimal documented state and local activity under its intended scope at present. Bidders responding to the Hillsborough County fire rescue supplies ITB must deliver to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida within 10 days of purchase order receipt under standard terms, with all products new and in original packaging, and must be authorized distributors capable of providing backorder and chain-of-custody information.
