UNSPSC 31162913: Bench clamp

A type of clamp designed to fit workbenches with holes 18-38mm.

UNSPSC 31162913 Bench clamp is a Commodity code that covers workholding and fastening hardware for industrial and facility maintenance use. Recent state and local activity under this code shows solicitations for hand tools and general maintenance supplies rather than specialized bench clamps themselves. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, a large Florida county purchasing entity, has posted competitive sealed bids (ITBs) for broad categories of hand tools and janitorial supplies serving county operations including fire rescue and public safety departments. The code appears to be used as a catch-all classification within larger tool and supply line-item groups rather than as a discrete procurement driver.

Hillsborough County dominates the recent solicitation activity under this code. Two ITBs posted in mid-2026 target hand tools (ITB-26-00285, due June 23, 2026, estimated value $715,540.41 over five years) and janitorial and operational supplies (ITB-26-00319, due July 24, 2026, estimated value $765,679.84 for one year). Both solicitations allow the County to award by line item or overall price, share contracts with the Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council, and impose no minimum purchase guarantees. The hand-tools ITB specifies 52 line items including pry bars, hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, and shovels with exact brand-name requirements; the janitorial ITB targets consumable supplies for 47 fire stations operating 24/7. Delivery windows are tight—five to ten business days depending on the contract—and shipments route to county warehouse and operations locations throughout Hillsborough County. No recent bench-clamp-specific opportunities appear in the source material, suggesting the code is applied incidentally within broader tool and supply buys rather than driving standalone procurement.
