UNSPSC 31401707: Bolted stamped gasket

Gasket produced by forming and cutting various metals to achieve desired profile and perimeter shapes, which are then secured to or between sealing surfaces by bolts and nuts

UNSPSC 31401707 Bolted stamped gasket (Commodity) covers gaskets, seals, and related fluid-containment components that state and local governments procure primarily for water infrastructure maintenance, municipal facility repairs, and equipment servicing across utility, facilities management, and public works departments.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span water utilities, county facilities management divisions, city public works departments, and school districts. The City of Tampa and the City of Dallas appear most recently, with Tampa requesting locking gaskets for ductile iron pipe and Dallas establishing master agreements for ductile iron pipe supply to its Water Utilities department. County governments including Pinellas County and Bernalillo County solicit plumbing supplies catalogs that include gasket and seal components as part of broader maintenance and repair inventories. The geographic spread includes Florida (Tampa, Pinellas County), Texas (Dallas, Galveston County, Donna ISD), Georgia (City of Acworth, DeKalb County Schools, Gwinnett County Schools), New Mexico (Bernalillo County), and Wisconsin (Rusk County), with recent activity concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Tampa's June 2026 RFQ for ten 16-inch EPDM locking gaskets for 16-inch ductile iron pipe (Solicitation 26P00416, due June 26, 2026) and the City of Dallas's May 2026 ITB for a five-year master agreement supplying ductile iron pipe to Water Utilities (Solicitation BG2600029310, due June 12, 2026). Bernalillo County issued RFB 41-26-MT in February 2026 for plumbing supplies including gaskets and seals as line items within a six-lot catalog procurement (due March 4, 2026), with estimated annual county spending of approximately $175,000 across all plumbing supply categories. Most plumbing-supply solicitations structure pricing as percentage discounts off manufacturer list prices or MSRP, with firm pricing required for initial contract periods (typically 12 to 36 months) and subsequent annual adjustments limited to published cost indices when vendors provide 90 to 120 days' advance notice. Water utility and facilities management contracts typically award on an item-by-item, group, or aggregate basis at the issuing body's discretion, with FOB destination delivery required and no restocking fees permitted.
