UNSPSC 31181702: Glands

UNSPSC 31181702 Glands is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, encompasses pipe fittings and connection components used in sanitary sewer infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through county sanitation and public works departments issuing infrastructure repair and pavement rehabilitation bids. The scope of work involves removal and replacement of pipe wyes, service connection fittings, and related coupling and sealing components as part of larger mainline and lateral pipe replacement efforts—not the code's nominal mechanical seal or packing gland application.

Santa Clara County's sanitation and public works divisions account for the recent activity in this code. County Sanitation District No. 2-3 in Santa Clara County posted an ITB (Solicitation Number ITBRDAFY270088) on August 26, 2026, due September 17, 2026, for the Structural Defect Repair Project Phase 2, which explicitly requires removal and replacement of service connection fittings including twenty-seven 4"x6" wyes, two 4"x8" wyes, and two 4"x10" wyes as part of a sewer mainline rehabilitation program in unincorporated eastern foothills. Santa Clara County's Public Works Department posted a separate ITB (Solicitation Number ITBRDAFY260694) on April 29, 2026, due May 21, 2026, for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project, which includes removal and replacement of inductive traffic loops and other infrastructure components. Activity is limited to California, specifically Santa Clara County, in the recent opportunity set; no other jurisdictions or states appear in the posted opportunities.
