UNSPSC 40141674: Carbon steel gate valve

Gate (stopping flow) made of Carbon steel

UNSPSC 40141674 Carbon steel gate valve is a Commodity code under which state and local water utilities and districts procure replacement gate valves, check valves, butterfly valves, and related mechanical components for water distribution systems, treatment plants, and storage facilities. Recent solicitations show water districts buying specific valve types — resilient seat gate valves in 6-, 8-, and 10-inch sizes; detector check valves; swing check valves for pump stations; and butterfly valves for filter plants — with delivery to central maintenance facilities or plant sites. Work spans supply-only procurement (where the buying entity handles installation) and supply-with-services (where vendors provide submittal documents, shop drawings, and factory inspection).

Water authorities in Georgia and California dominate recent activity, with Gwinnett County issuing multiple informal written quotations and competitive sealed bids for valve purchases between January and July 2026. The Alameda County Water District in California posted gate valve solicitations in January, April, and July 2026. The Douglasville-Douglas County Water and Sewer Authority in Georgia issued IFB 321 for fire hydrants and gate valves on April 1, 2026 with bids due April 29, 2026; Gwinnett County solicited 19 replacement swing check valves under competitive sealed bid (due April 24, 2026) and 60 resilient seat gate valves under informal written quotation (due April 3, 2026 with an April 2 addendum clarifying mechanical-joint-to-mechanical-joint connections). The Eastern Municipal Water District in Riverside County, California requested quotes for 36-inch butterfly valves (due March 20, 2026). Responses typically require unit pricing inclusive of delivery, three project references, and compliance with local ineligibility source lists where applicable; Gwinnett County repeatedly flags that firms on its ineligible source list are barred from submission regardless of electronic notification.
