UNSPSC 27112107: Adjustable widemouth pliers

UNSPSC 27112107 Adjustable widemouth pliers is a Commodity code representing individual hand tools that state and local governments source as components of larger consumable-supply and tool-procurement contracts. Recent solicitations show this code appearing within broad janitorial and operational supply buys and in specialized master tool set procurements for fleet and maintenance operations, where pliers and other individual hand tools are bundled with multi-hundred-piece tool collections rather than purchased in standalone lots.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county governments and state agencies accessing cooperative purchasing vehicles. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an ITB in July 2026 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies estimated at $765,679.84 for one year, with deliveries to the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department across 47 fire stations; the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, procuring on behalf of the Texas Department of Transportation and other state agencies through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative system, issued an IFB in June 2026 for master tool sets and individual tools with a scope that explicitly includes a minimum of 27 pliers as part of 1,152-piece master sets for garage and fleet maintenance. The Florida opportunity required response by July 24, 2026, while the Texas IFB closed on June 11, 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, driven by state-level cooperative-purchasing frameworks and county-level consumable supply programs. The Texas IFB represents the more specialized and higher-value use case, requiring respondents to demonstrate seven years of professional-grade mechanic tools experience, statewide on-site repair capability within 24 hours, and ten-year warranty coverage on all products, with contract term through July 31, 2027, plus four renewal options through 2030.
