UNSPSC 27112918: Grease gun injector

A component on a tool used to apply lubricant through an aperture to a specific point, usually on a grease fitting or 'nipple'.

UNSPSC 27112918 Grease gun injector is a Commodity code that captures manual and powered fluid-dispensing equipment state and local governments use for equipment maintenance and lubrication across vehicle fleets, public works operations, and facility maintenance. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers procuring grease guns as part of broader automotive parts and maintenance-supply bundles rather than as standalone line items; the City of Tampa's June 2026 RFQ for inventory automotive shop equipment, accessories, and supplies included grease guns alongside couplings, hydraulic couplers, antifreeze, fuel filters, and tire gauges for use by various city departments across Hillsborough County. Issuing bodies include municipal purchasing departments (City of Tampa), counties (Williamson County, Collier County, Paulding County, Worth County), and school districts (School Board of Sarasota County). The School Board of Sarasota County established a one-year supply agreement for automotive and light truck repair parts in January 2026 that encompasses OEM parts across 19 specified manufacturers, with options to renew for two additional one-year periods; delivery was required to the Transportation Garage at FOB Destination with 48-hour delivery for stock orders.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. The City of Tampa issued RFQ 26-P-00418 on June 25, 2026 with quotes due July 22, 2026; the School Board of Sarasota County posted Bid #26-0124 on January 23, 2026 with responses due February 12, 2026 and Board action scheduled for March 24, 2026. Worth County, Georgia solicited a four-post lift with installation (RFP due March 2, 2026), and Paulding County, Georgia requested design proposals for a compressed air and lubrication system (RFP due March 20, 2026). The City of Valdosta, Georgia bid annual bulk oils and lubes (Invitation to Bid #38-26, due April 21, 2026). Grease gun injectors appear consistently in municipal fleet and facilities maintenance procurement but rarely as dedicated solicitation focus; they cluster with broader automotive consumables and equipment purchases where delivery timelines, FOB terms, emergency-call provisions, and SBE/MBE certifications shape competitive positioning.
