UNSPSC 40142204: Welding regulator oxygen

Used specifically to regulate oxygen pressure going to cutting torch

UNSPSC 40142204 Welding regulator oxygen, a Commodity code, covers the supply of oxygen regulators and related welding equipment and materials that state and local governments purchase to support maintenance operations, vocational welding programs, and municipal infrastructure work. Recent solicitations show buyers acquiring both specific branded welding equipment—such as diesel-driven welder/generators—and comprehensive consumables including welding rods, electrodes, sheets, tubes, and pipes in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum compositions. Issuing bodies span municipal utilities, community colleges, and city governments; Collin College and Collin County Community College District appear as repeat buyers, each seeking three-year multi-vendor contracts for welding materials and supplies with estimated annual volumes around $400,000.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Connecticut. The North Texas Municipal Water District issued an IFB for two Lincoln Frontier 400X diesel welder/generators with a July 29, 2026 response date. Collin College posted two separate ITBs for welding materials, supplies, and equipment covering three-year periods (May 1, 2024 through April 30, 2027 and June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2027), with evaluation weighting purchase price at 35 percent alongside references, quality, meeting district needs, vendor history, total cost of ownership, and Texas vendor status. The City of Shelton, Connecticut issued an ITB for welding supplies (RE-Bid #2026-18R) with a response deadline of April 10, 2026, requiring electronic submission through the OpenGov procurement portal with contact Elizabeth Saint John at 203-924-1555.
