UNSPSC 27111747: Box wrench or spanner

A type of wrench (spanner) made of tubing with flats arranged at each end. Holes through the tubing are designed to take a tommy bar set at right angles to the tubing, and this is used to apply pressure to the wrench (spanner) head.

UNSPSC 27111747 Box wrench or spanner, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity for hand tools in their nominal sense. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners ITB2600319 for janitorial and operational supplies due July 24, 2026—does not align with the code's scope; the solicitation covers consumable supplies for fire station operations (cleaning products, maintenance items, and facility consumables) rather than wrenches or spanners. The code nominally covers fixed and adjustable hand wrenches used in maintenance and repair work across public facilities, but state and local agencies do not appear to be tagging such purchases under this code in the current marketplace.

Hillsborough County in Florida is the sole issuing body with a recent posting under this code, and the mismatch between the code designation and the actual goods being procured suggests either a classification error or a category rarely used by state and local procurement offices for tool acquisitions. The fire rescue department's contract spans a one-year period with an estimated value of $765,679.84 and covers delivery to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa. Without additional recent opportunities tagged to this code from other jurisdictions or states, the activity appears too limited to assess meaningful geographic concentration or issuing-body patterns. Business development professionals tracking traditional hand-tool procurement may find better visibility in related codes or by monitoring solicitations from facilities management and public works departments directly rather than relying on this category's recent posting volume.
