UNSPSC 40171623: Industrial tin pipe

Pipe with a pressure rating of more than 2500 psi made of tin

UNSPSC 40171623 Industrial tin pipe is a Commodity code that sees little recent activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. Among the opportunities tagged under this code, only the City of Phoenix Public Works Department's IFB 26-SW-0379 for supply of industrial pipe, miscellaneous fittings, and equipment—due August 12, 2026—involves materials nominally within the code's description. However, that solicitation focuses on High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) pipe rather than tin pipe, covering supply on an as-needed basis with 24- to 48-hour delivery and local inventory maintenance over a three-year term with two optional one-year extensions. The remaining opportunities tagged under the code address construction and infrastructure projects (water treatment facility improvements, bridge replacements, stormwater and outfall pipe rehabilitation, pavement work, and utility renewal) where pipe and related materials are components of larger capital projects rather than standalone supply contracts. Issuing bodies include municipalities, counties, and special-purpose water authorities across Florida, California, and Texas, with no repeat issuers in the recent dataset.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Collier County, Orange County, Palm Bay, and Naples Park) and Texas (Fort Worth and Santa Clara County, California), driven primarily by aging infrastructure rehabilitation and utility renewal initiatives. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix's as-needed industrial pipe supply contract and Collier County's $17.8 million Naples Park public utilities renewal project (due May 15, 2026, IFB), which involves replacement of potable water, wastewater, and stormwater piping across 11,000+ linear feet in a residential neighborhood. The code shows minimal direct procurement for tin pipe itself; suppliers pursuing this code should clarify with issuing bodies whether PVC, HDPE, ductile iron, or other materials are the actual scope before investing in bid preparation.
