UNSPSC 40141622: Inline check valves

UNSPSC 40141622 Inline check valves is a Commodity code that encompasses check valves, gate valves, butterfly valves, resilient seat valves, and related flow-control appurtenances that state and local water utilities procure for water main replacement, treatment plant upgrades, and distribution system maintenance. Recent state and local solicitations show water departments buying inline check valves as components in larger water system projects—embedded in materials-only bids for water main replacement, specified as replacement parts for treatment facilities, and sourced individually through as-needed supply agreements with manufacturers including Watts, Ames, Wilkins, DeZurik, Pratt, and Vent-O-Mat. Issuing bodies include city water departments, county water resource authorities, and special-purpose water districts across the Southeast and West, with Gwinnett County, Georgia appearing multiple times as a repeat buyer through informal written quotations and competitive sealed bids; smaller cities and counties in Georgia, North Carolina, Texas, and California round out the active buyer base.

Gwinnett County Financial Services Purchasing Division has issued multiple quotations and bids for check valves, resilient gate valves, and related accessories since January 2026, including an IWQ for Mueller resilient valves and tapping valves due June 9, 2026, and a competitive sealed bid for 19 replacement swing check valves for the F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center due April 24, 2026. The City of Tampa Water Department solicited backflow prevention devices and check valves under a sheltered Small Local Business Enterprise procurement (ITB 26P00305) due June 22, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $75,000 and one-year initial award plus renewal options. The City of Sarasota issued an ITB for water main materials including valves and appurtenances (ITB #26-31JS) with a June 16, 2026 deadline (now past). Charlotte Water in North Carolina issued an RFP for water treatment valve rehabilitation services covering butterfly, cone, and gate valves on March 16, 2026 with proposals due April 1, 2026. Activity concentrates in Georgia (particularly metro Atlanta through Gwinnett County), Florida (Tampa, Sarasota), North Carolina (Charlotte), and scattered smaller jurisdictions in Texas and California, with Georgia showing the highest recent frequency and volume.
