UNSPSC 27131613: Air coupling

UNSPSC 27131613 Air coupling is a Commodity code that encompasses quick-disconnect fluid and pneumatic coupling devices procured by state and local agencies, though recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show minimal direct alignment with air coupling products themselves. The two most recent opportunities in the state and local record — a Sourcewell cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP and a Santa Clara County pavement rehabilitation ITB — do not center on air couplings but rather on broader equipment and construction services. State and local governments using this code typically source air couplings as component parts or subsystems within larger equipment or system procurements rather than as standalone line items, which may explain the sparse representation in tagged solicitations.

The geographic activity visible in recent records centers on Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties participating in the Sourcewell cooperative) and California (Santa Clara County), though the Sourcewell vehicle itself serves a nationwide and cross-border scope of public entities. The Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, due June 16, 2026, and the Santa Clara County Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation ITB ITBRDAFY260694, due May 21, 2026, represent the only recent posted opportunities tied to this code; neither solicitation explicitly names air couplings as a primary deliverable. Firms pursuing this Commodity code should expect opportunities to surface through cooperative purchasing frameworks like Sourcewell rather than direct municipal or county buys, and should anticipate that air couplings will be specified as embedded components within larger equipment systems or specialized apparatus rather than as discrete product orders.
