NIGP 65897: Tubing (Not Otherwise Classified)

NIGP 65897 Tubing (Not Otherwise Classified), an Item code, covers the supply of specialized tubing products for state and local government operations, ranging from equipment-specific pump tubing for water-utility samplers to infrastructure components embedded in pavement rehabilitation projects. State and local jurisdictions procure under this code when tubing is a discrete supply item or component rather than part of a larger systems integration. Issuing bodies include county departments of water resources and county transportation authorities; the code shows activity across the range of county-level infrastructure and utility operations.

Gwinnett County Department of Financial Services issued an IFB (quotation) for 400 units of pump tubing (manufacturer item number 60-6700-062 or approved equivalent) for 5800/4700 and 6700 Series Avalanche Sampler equipment on June 25, 2026, with response due June 30, 2026 via email, with delivery FOB to Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Santa Clara County issued an ITB for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard on April 29, 2026, with bid opening May 21, 2026, specifying a 142 working-day completion window; while the primary scope is labor and materials for pavement work, the bid documents reference removal and replacement of infrastructure components that may include tubing elements within traffic signal and bioretention basin systems. Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and California. The code does not show a sustained pattern of solicitations in the provided window; prospective vendors should monitor county-level water-utility and transportation RFQs and ITBs for discrete tubing-supply opportunities.
