UNSPSC 40171708: PVC plastic pipe adapter

Pipe adapter made of PVC plastic

UNSPSC 40171708 PVC plastic pipe adapter is a Commodity code covering rigid and flexible plastic pipe fittings and connectors that state and local governments procure for water and wastewater systems. Recent solicitations show demand for MJS adapters with integral gaskets and diaphragm seals, standard couplings and reducers for municipal water networks, and specialized instrumentation fittings for wastewater treatment operations. The work draws from water utilities, county departments of water resources, and city water services divisions that source these components as consumables and replacement parts for distribution and collection infrastructure.

Activity appears light and dispersed across jurisdictions. The most recent representative opportunity is Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources' Informal Written Quotation IWQ 132533, posted June 10, 2026, requesting three 48-inch Bell X MJS adapters and three 48-inch Spigot X MJS adapters with gaskets and diapers, due June 15, 2026, awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor with FOB Destination delivery to Lawrenceville, Georgia. The City of Phoenix Water Services Department's five-year IFB 260217 posted February 23, 2026, encompassed 15 product groups including couplings, reducers, elbows, and flanges—with volumes ranging from 2 to over 21,000 units—requiring AWWA, ASTM, and NSF certification for potable water materials, five years of vendor operation history, local inventory, and next-day delivery on standard parts. Georgia and Arizona show recent activity under the code. Compliance expectations include standard commercial insurance ($2 million general aggregate minimum), E-Verify for immigration verification, and in some cases DBE requirements under 49 C.F.R. Part 26.
