UNSPSC 27112500: Prying and bending tools

UNSPSC 27112500 Prying and bending tools, a Class code, covers hand tools and equipment for mechanical fastening and material manipulation that state and local governments procure for facilities maintenance, fire rescue operations, and general departmental use. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring hammer tackers, prying tools, and related hand implements as consumable supplies for ongoing operational support rather than as capital equipment. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county boards of commissioners and municipal procurement offices, with Hillsborough County and the City of Philadelphia appearing in recent postings. The work involves supplying new, unused tools in original packaging through authorized distributors, with standard delivery timelines of ten days or less and responsive supplier management of backorder and chain-of-custody documentation.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Pennsylvania. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB-26-00319 in July 2026 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies including tools for the Fire Rescue Department's 47 fire stations, estimated at $765,679.84 for one year with bids due July 24, 2026; the City of Philadelphia posted two micro-purchase RFQs—B2626809 for hand tools in April 2026 (capped at $43,000, due April 14) and B2627188 for a hammer tacker in May 2026 (due May 29)—both awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. All three solicitations require FOB Destination pricing, compliance with insurance and tax certifications, and electronic submission through county or municipal procurement portals.
