UNSPSC 27112806: Threading taps

UNSPSC 27112806 Threading taps, a Commodity code, encompasses hand tool supply contracts that state and local jurisdictions solicit to stock maintenance, operations, and repair inventories. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers purchasing threading taps as part of broader hand tool lineups — shovels, hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers, pry bars, saws, and related items — supplied on an as-needed or annual contract basis. The issuing bodies include municipal procurement offices (cities), county governments, and state purchasing divisions managing cooperative systems. These buyers use threading taps and related hand tools across fleet maintenance, public works, facilities operations, and infrastructure repair functions.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Texas, and Florida. The City of Augusta, Georgia issued ITB 27-001 for an annual hand tools supply contract (39 line items, bids due September 29, 2026) with a local bidders preference and M/WBE program requirements. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, procuring on behalf of the Texas Department of Transportation and other state agencies through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative purchasing system, issued Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-445A1 for master tool sets and individual tools (responses due June 11, 2026), with statewide delivery and on-site repair capability within 24 hours required of vendors. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida solicited competitive sealed bids under ITB-26-00285 for 52 line items of hand tools with an estimated five-year contract value of $715,540.41 (bids due June 23, 2026). All three opportunities require firm fixed pricing or indexed adjustments tied to consumer or producer price indices, delivery within days of order, and brand-name or equivalent product specifications.
