UNSPSC 27112736: Wall chaser

A specialised power tool generally used for cutting a groove into a wall. It is comprised of a motor that drives two abrasive discs like those found in an angle grinder. The abrasive discs are placed closely together.

UNSPSC 27112736 Wall chaser (Commodity) covers hand tool supplies that state and local governments procure on an as-needed basis for operational and maintenance work. Recent solicitations show that issuing bodies are acquiring individual hand tools — shovels, pry bars, hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, brooms, brushes, and related implements — typically via annual or multi-year supply contracts with fixed or CPI-adjusted pricing and delivery windows of five to sixty days. City and county purchasing offices dominate the buyer base, with no school districts, transit authorities, or state departments appearing in recent activity; municipal and county governments treat hand tools as routine operational supplies managed through competitive sealed bids.

Activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest. The City of Augusta, Georgia posted an ITB for 39 line items of hand tools with a September 29, 2026 response date and a Local Bidders Preference applying to awards under $100,000. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Florida, solicited 52 line items under a five-year contract with an estimated value of $715,540.41 and a June 23, 2026 response date. A cooperative purchasing opportunity through Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) and other jurisdictions nationwide posted an RFP for Law Enforcement Equipment with a June 16, 2026 deadline, though the scope relationship to wall chasers specifically is unclear. Bidders typically must quote all line items, provide brand-specification compliance documentation, accept E-Verify and drug-free workplace requirements, and agree to fixed or indexed annual pricing with no guaranteed minimum volumes.
