UNSPSC 41113044: Alcohol hydrometer

A meter that is designed to measure the alcoholic strength. It is the instrument that measures the Tralle scale and proof that measure the contents compared to the alcohol volume.

UNSPSC 41113044 Alcohol hydrometer is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code involve laboratory testing services (Marion County, Oregon phlebotomy and lab draws), laboratory equipment repair and maintenance (Texas DSHS for sterilization and steam generator servicing), spectrophotometer procurement (City of Tampa replacement equipment), insulating oil testing for electric utilities (Lubbock Power & Light), materials testing and special inspection services for construction (Town of Waterford, Connecticut fire station), lab information management system replacement (Santa Clara County), electrical meter test boards (City of Ocala), water well construction and testing (City of Palm Bay), fatigue testing systems (Lamar University), and various other specialized scientific and technical equipment or services. None of these solicitations involve alcohol hydrometers as a product or service line. The code's nominal commodity — a hydrometer for measuring alcohol content — does not align with the laboratory equipment, repair services, construction materials inspection, or utility-grade testing scope that the recent opportunities actually describe.

The geographic spread of these mismatched opportunities spans Texas, Oregon, Florida, Connecticut, and California, with issuing bodies including state health departments, county utilities, municipalities, special districts, and universities. The mismatch between the code label and the work being solicited suggests either tagging error or that state and local procurement offices are not currently buying alcohol hydrometers as a distinct line item under this code. Firms evaluating whether to pursue activity under UNSPSC 41113044 should verify with issuing bodies directly whether they intend to solicit hydrometers; the recent opportunity list does not support active demand for the commodity as named.
