UNSPSC 40142020: Hydraulic hose

A type of hose specifically designed to convey hydraulic fluid to or among hydraulic components, valves, actuators and tools. It is typically flexible and often reinforced because it is used in hydraulic systems that are frequently under high pressure.

UNSPSC 40142020 Hydraulic hose, a Commodity code, covers the supply of hydraulic hoses, fittings, and related components that state and local governments procure to maintain operational equipment across fleet services, wastewater treatment, solid waste operations, and highway maintenance. State and local governments buy these items as replacement stock for compactors, construction equipment, pumps, and vehicle fleets, and they frequently bundle hose procurement with on-site repair and mobile maintenance services. Issuing bodies include city public works departments (Atlanta, Phoenix, Tampa), county watershed management districts (Fulton County), state transportation cabinets (Kentucky, Ohio), and municipal solid waste divisions. Cities in particular solicit under this code repeatedly, with Tampa and Atlanta showing multiple recent opportunities across fiscal years; these repeat buyers treat hose procurement as an ongoing operational necessity rather than episodic capital acquisition.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and mid-South, with Atlanta, Phoenix, Tampa, and Fulton County (Georgia) posting the densest solicitation flow, and activity also present in Kentucky and Ohio. The City of Atlanta issued IFB MS-IFB/DPW/2609-1270096 on October 8, 2026, due October 21, 2026, combining supply of hydraulic cylinders, pumps, hoses, and fittings with on-site and mobile repair services across multiple City locations. The City of Phoenix issued IFB 27-FSD-0353 on August 14, 2026 for hydraulic hose repair and replacement services (due August 13, 2026 — a prior-year close date flagging a reposted or amended notice), requiring two-hour response time and depot repair capacity across six service centers and three aviation facilities with a three-year initial term and two one-year renewal options. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet issued RFB 60526000005472 on April 30, 2026 for a Master Agreement supply contract of Parker quick-connect couplings and 3000 PSI hose assemblies with May 7, 2026 bid closing and May 31, 2027 contract term plus four one-year renewals. The City of Tampa Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management division posted RFQ 26-P-00338 on May 29, 2026 for hose and fittings supporting compactor operations due May 27, 2026. Most solicitations are issued as IFB or RFQ; contract terms typically run one to three years with renewal options, and Kentucky and Florida both apply tax-exemption treatment to qualifying hose transactions.
