UNSPSC 40141656: Flange type butterfly valve

A butterfly-shaped valve that is in the flange-type for the connected part from the valves that adjust the flow by rotating the circular plate-shape of valve body on the basis of the axis installed in right angle to the flow direction.

UNSPSC 40141656 Flange type butterfly valve — a Commodity code — encompasses potable water system components that state and local governments procure for treatment facilities, water distribution networks, and wastewater operations. Recent solicitations show purchases of butterfly valves ranging from replacement units at treatment plants to bulk inventory stock for municipal water and wastewater departments, often paired with control equipment such as rate-of-flow controllers and electric actuators. Issuing bodies span city water departments (Lubbock, Dallas, Tampa, Fort Worth, North Miami Beach), county water resources and utilities agencies (Gwinnett County, Hillsborough County, Wayne County, Pasco County), regional water authorities (Eastern Municipal Water District in California, Douglasville-Douglas County Water and Sewer Authority in Georgia), and special-purpose water treatment districts. Repeat buyers include Gwinnett County and the City of Tampa, both of which have issued multiple solicitations for valves and valve-related parts and services within the past six months.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with secondary activity in California. Representative opportunities include the City of Lubbock's ITB 26-19653-YB for a 16-inch butterfly valve and rate-of-flow controller assembly for potable water service (sealed bids due May 27, 2026), Gwinnett County's BL045-26 for butterfly valves for the Lanier and Shoal Creek Filter Plants (bids due July 13, 2026), the City of Dallas's requisition for butterfly valves of all kinds (bids due February 27, 2026, submitted through Bonfire), and the Eastern Municipal Water District's RFQ 3930 for Lineseal XP 36" butterfly valves (quotes due March 20, 2026). Solicitation structures vary: some municipalities issue competitive sealed ITBs or RFPs with detailed technical specifications and delivery windows; others use RFQs for smaller component orders. Single-source procurements for OEM parts (Limitorque, DeZurik, REXA actuators) from authorized representatives appear regularly when replacement compatibility or warranty requirements justify sole-source awards. Most contracts specify F.O.B. Destination delivery to municipal warehouses or treatment facility sites and require compliance with tax exemptions, E-Verify employment verification, and insurance minimums. No set-aside preferences specific to this commodity code are evident in the recent postings; local business preferences and small business goals apply where state or municipal ordinance mandates them, as in Fort Worth's 30 percent small business participation requirement and Tampa's SLBE-exclusive bid discount provision.
