UNSPSC 40141638: Toggle valves

UNSPSC 40141638 Toggle valves is a Commodity code covering resilient-seat gate valves, check valves, butterfly valves, and related water-system valve hardware and parts that state and local water utilities, wastewater authorities, and school districts procure for treatment plants, distribution systems, and facilities maintenance. The recent solicitation record shows a pronounced concentration in water-utility procurement: Gwinnett County, Georgia has issued at least six separate quotations and bid solicitations for resilient gate valves, check valves, RBX valve kits, butterfly valves, and MJ resilient valves since early April 2026. The City of Tampa and City of Madison water departments have each solicited Kennedy brand check-valve replacement parts and resilient wedge gate valves respectively. Seminole County pursued a sole-source procurement for REXA actuator parts for wastewater treatment. Beyond water systems, Pinellas County School District in Florida issued a larger RFP for fencing, gate operators, and handrails in June 2026—a significant outlier that does not align with the code's core water-valve scope and suggests a potential tagging misalignment. The issuing bodies are predominantly county-level water departments and utilities; city water departments appear less frequently but remain active.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida. Gwinnett County Financial Services Purchasing Division has dominated the opportunity stream with eight documented procurements (RFQs and informal written quotations) between late March and early June 2026, all for water-system valve components in sizes ranging from 2 to 12 inches. The City of Tampa Water Department issued two RFQs in June 2026 for Kennedy brand check-valve parts (26P00344 due May 28, 2026, and 26P00354 due May 29, 2026). The City of Madison Water Utility posted RFQ 551502026BG on March 3, 2026 (due March 17, 2026) for 110 resilient wedge gate valves across multiple sizes. Gwinnett County's BL009-26 solicitation for replacement check valves at the F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center closed April 24, 2026. The code shows steady but narrow recent demand: water-utility replacement and maintenance procurement for resilient-seat, swing-check, and butterfly valves compliant with AWWA C509, C515, and ASTM standards, with delivery on FOB Destination basis and unit pricing typically spanning sizes 2 to 30 inches. Award criteria consistently favor lowest responsive and responsible bidding with evaluation of manufacturer authorization, delivery time, and past performance.
