UNSPSC 40102200: Expansion joint

An assembly designed to hold parts of an industrial system together while safely accommodating temperature-induced expansion and contraction movement or system vibration. Includes flexible, bellows, rigid, and reinforced types of expansion joints. They are used for a variety of applications, commonly including heat exchanger systems.

UNSPSC 40102200 Expansion joint, a Class code, covers the procurement of expansion joints — modular sealing and movement-control devices installed in infrastructure, building systems, and industrial equipment to accommodate thermal expansion, vibration, and structural settlement. State and local governments solicit these components primarily for highway and bridge maintenance, parking structures, airport facilities, water treatment plants, and HVAC system retrofits. The issuing bodies are typically departments of transportation, public works departments, facilities management offices, and municipal maintenance divisions managing aging infrastructure assets.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code. Without posted RFPs, RFQs, IBFs, or ITBs naming expansion joints, issuing bodies, response dates, or geographic locations, no representative solicitations or jurisdictional concentration can be identified. The code shows no visible recent activity in the state and local procurement pipeline as of the search date.
