UNSPSC 27111768: Point socket

Type of socket that enables the rotation of the bolt or nut continuously without the need to reposition the die. The turning force is transmitted through the recess, where it engages the die

UNSPSC 27111768 Point socket is a Commodity code that frames tools and hardware accessories, yet the recent state and local activity under this code shows no direct purchases of point sockets or related hand tools. Instead, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB2600319 in July 2026 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies to stock 47 fire stations across Hillsborough County Fire Rescue — a sourcing pattern that diverges sharply from the code's nominal scope. The solicitation sought new, unused janitorial and operational consumables on an as-needed basis, with delivery to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida. This mismatch between code label and actual procurement activity suggests the code carries limited relevant recent opportunity under its stated definition.

The available record captures only a single state or local opportunity under this code: Hillsborough County's July 2026 ITB for janitorial and operational supplies, due July 24, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for a one-year term. Bidders were required to be authorized distributors, meet 10-day standard delivery and five-business-day emergency delivery windows, and quote free-on-board destination pricing inclusive of shipping and warranty. The County reserved the right to award by line item, group/section, or overall net bid price and did not guarantee minimum purchase quantities. No other recent state or local solicitations under this code are present in the source material, and the single opportunity shown does not reflect procurement of point sockets or related hand tool hardware.
