UNSPSC 41114633: Thermal expansion tester

A tester that is designed to measure the expansion rate of the length generally following the temperature, namely, coefficient of linear expansion.

UNSPSC 41114633 Thermal expansion tester is a Commodity code that captures laboratory and testing equipment used by state and local health departments, water utilities, and specialized facilities to measure material properties and system performance. Recent solicitations under this code show little direct alignment with the code's nominal scope. The source includes opportunities spanning laboratory testing services (Marion County, Oregon phlebotomy and specimen collection), equipment repair and maintenance (Texas DSHS laboratory equipment service), spectrophotometer replacement (City of Tampa waste-to-energy facility), insulating oil testing for electrical utilities (Lubbock Power & Light), meter testing boards (City of Ocala electric utility), and water well construction (City of Palm Bay). Of these, only the spectrophotometer replacement at Tampa's McKay Bay facility and the Ocala meter test board procurement involve instrumentation remotely related to materials testing, while the remainder are either laboratory services, repair contracts, or infrastructure projects. The code shows limited recent state and local procurement activity specifically for thermal expansion testing equipment.

Geographic activity is dispersed across Texas, Florida, Oregon, and Connecticut, with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00372 for a Heck DR4900 Spectrophotometer (posted June 25, 2026, response deadline June 12, 2026), the City of Ocala's RFP ELE/260570 for a three-phase meter test board (posted April 7, 2026, response deadline April 30, 2026), and Lubbock Power & Light's RFP for insulating oil testing laboratory services (posted June 18, 2026, response deadline July 22, 2026). The code does not appear to be active for thermal expansion testing specifically under current state and local procurement activity. Firms pursuing opportunities in this code should verify that individual solicitation scopes align with their product or service offerings before committing resources.
