UNSPSC 27111749: Pipe wrench or stillson wrench

An adjustable wrench used for turning soft iron pipes and fittings with a rounded surface. The design of the adjustable jaw allows it to rock in the frame, such that any forward pressure on the handle tends to pull the jaws tighter together.

UNSPSC 27111749 Pipe wrench or stillson wrench is a Commodity code that encompasses hand tools for gripping and turning pipes and fittings. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects purchasing of individual wrenches and small quantities of hand tools for maintenance, repair, and operational use across facilities and departments. Recent solicitations show these tools being acquired as part of broader consumable supplies and equipment buys rather than as standalone tool orders. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county government purchasing offices and special-purpose departments such as fire rescue and public safety operations. Purchases are typically embedded in larger janitorial, operational, and maintenance supply contracts where pipe wrenches and similar hand tools appear as line items among dozens of consumable products required to support round-the-clock facility operations.

Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted an ITB on July 7, 2026 (ITB2600319, response due July 24, 2026) for consumable janitorial and operational supplies to support the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department's 47 fire stations. The estimated contract value is $765,679.84 for a one-year term, with pipe wrenches and related hand tools likely included as part of the maintenance and repair supply line items. Delivery is required within 10 days of purchase order receipt to the Public Safety Operations Complex at Tampa, Florida, with emergency delivery available within five business days. The County reserves the right to award by line item, group, or overall net bid price and does not guarantee minimum purchase quantities. Bidders must be authorized distributors for all products, provide Drug-Free Workplace Certification, and submit a Substitute W-9 Form.
