UNSPSC 41116301: Flash point testers

UNSPSC 41116301 Flash point testers is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure automated laboratory instruments for measuring the flash points of flammable liquids and petroleum products. Flash point testers determine the lowest temperature at which a liquid releases vapors capable of igniting in air, a critical safety specification for compliance with fuel and chemical standards. The work involves the purchase and delivery of precision testing equipment, typically Automated Cleveland Open Cup (COC) or equivalent designs, used by transportation departments, environmental agencies, and materials-testing laboratories to verify product safety and regulatory conformance.

State transportation departments are the primary buyers under this code. A recent and representative opportunity comes from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Materials and Tests Division, which issued an IFB on May 21, 2026 for the purchase of two Automated Cleveland Open Cup Flash Point Testers through the Euna Procurement platform (formerly Bonfire), with a response deadline of May 14, 2026. Vendors must register on the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Centralized Master Bidders List (CMBL) to participate in TxDOT procurement. Prospective bidders can contact Enrique Moya, CTCD, at Enrique.Moya@txdot.gov or 512-416-2105 for procurement inquiries, and must monitor the Euna Procurement website regularly for addenda and Q&A updates. Texas is the primary geography for recent activity under this code.
