UNSPSC 40142013: Mining hose

Hose used in the mining industry.

UNSPSC 40142013 Mining hose, a Commodity code, encompasses hose products and replacement components state and local governments procure for water reclamation, fire rescue, and water resources operations. Recent solicitations show water and wastewater utilities sourcing pump hoses, fire hoses, and jet nozzles rather than extraction-grade mining hose; the code captures industrial and municipal hose types used in utility and emergency-response infrastructure. Issuing bodies include county water and wastewater departments, fire rescue services, and county purchasing divisions. The solicitations reflect replacement-parts procurement and capital equipment sourcing rather than consumables, with vendors required to meet specific material specifications (pressure ratings, diameter, jacket construction) and delivery timelines.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, where Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources and Department of Financial Services have posted two solicitations in the past five months for fire hoses and jet nozzles, and Fulton County Department of Watershed Management issued an IFB for Watson-Marlow Bredel pump hose components due July 31, 2026. Hillsborough County Fire Rescue in Florida also solicited janitorial and operational supplies under this code (ITB2600319, due July 24, 2026, estimated contract value $765,679.84), though the janitorial framing suggests potential code-to-opportunity misalignment. Gwinnett County's May 2026 informal written quotation for 100 fire hose units (250 psi rating, 50 feet, 1 inch diameter, single jacket) with delivery to F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center Warehouse exemplifies the specificity of recent hose procurement: unit pricing with two decimal places, FOB Destination terms, three project references required, and award to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor with no bonds required.
