UNSPSC 31401703: Rubber stamped gasket

Gasket produced by forming and cutting rubber to achieve desired profile and perimeter shapes

UNSPSC 31401703 Rubber stamped gasket, a Commodity code, covers mechanical joint gaskets and related sealing products that state and local governments procure for water utility operations, facility maintenance, and infrastructure projects. Recent solicitations show Palm Beach County, Florida purchasing mechanical joint gaskets for integration with existing water systems, and the City of Tampa procuring 16-inch EPDM locking gaskets for ductile iron pipe on its Water Department systems. The work involves one-time purchases and occasional supply agreements for gasket replacement, repair, and infrastructure maintenance rather than large-scale construction or design services. Issuing bodies include county water departments, city water utilities, and special-purpose water districts focused on maintaining distribution and treatment infrastructure.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, with Palm Beach County and Tampa posting separate gasket solicitations between August and September 2026, both structured as straightforward purchase requisitions with response windows of two to three weeks and SBE or local preference requirements where applicable. The code shows limited but consistent recent activity; most other solicitations in the dataset (park renovations, police locker room work, residential housing rehabilitation, plumbing supply agreements, and law enforcement equipment) do not align with rubber gasket procurement and appear to reflect broader facility or construction scopes tagged to the code without precision. Vendors pursuing this code should focus on mechanical joint gasket manufacturers and distributors capable of meeting water utility technical specifications, delivering quickly to Florida water departments and similar municipal water systems, and complying with local small-business preferences.
