UNSPSC 40101507: Spiral ventilation tubing

Flexible tubing used to move air in underground mining applications.

UNSPSC 40101507 Spiral ventilation tubing is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The single relevant opportunity in the source involves the Town of Waterford Utility Commission's replacement of plastic water service lines with copper tubing; while the Commodity code nominally names spiral ventilation tubing, Waterford's work centers on copper water services and installation (1-inch and 2-inch seamless tubing per ASTM B88 specifications) rather than ventilation equipment. The remaining recent opportunities tagged to this code address boiler and chiller maintenance in Charlotte, energy recovery ventilator repairs in Augusta, HDPE drainage pipe and couplings in Augusta, construction work in St. Marys and Fontana, bridge replacement in Orange County, water treatment plant residuals handling in Dallas, and law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle—none directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The issuing bodies represented span municipal utilities (Waterford), city departments (Charlotte, Augusta, St. Marys), school districts (Fontana), counties (Orange County), special-purpose authorities (Great Lakes Water Authority, Dallas Water Utilities), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell). The geographic spread includes Connecticut, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Michigan, California, Texas, and multistate cooperative coverage.

The most recent opportunity matching the code's stated scope is the Town of Waterford Utility Commission IFB26014 posted October 16, 2026 (bids due November 12, 2026), which involves replacement of existing plastic water services with new copper water services on Rope Ferry Road. An earlier Waterford procurement, IFB26007 posted April 29, 2026 (due May 21, 2026), followed a similar pattern. Neither opportunity directly solicits spiral ventilation tubing; both address water service line replacement with copper tubing. The source contains no solicitations explicitly requesting spiral ventilation tubing equipment or materials. The code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the work being procured in practice under this classification.
