Pipe adapter made of CPVC plastic

UNSPSC 40171709 CPVC plastic pipe adapter is a Commodity code covering rigid plastic pipe fittings and connectors used by water utilities and municipal water systems. Recent state and local procurement under this code focuses on specific adapter configurations for water distribution infrastructure, including MJS adapters and miscellaneous water pipe fittings that comply with American Water Works Association (AWWA), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards for potable water systems. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county water departments, city water utilities, and municipal procurement offices; repeat buyers include the Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department. Work spans supply of adapter units with gaskets and supporting materials, typically purchased through Informal Written Quotations (IWQ), Invitations for Bid (IFB), and competitive sealed-offer processes, with contracts often structured as multi-year supply agreements or single-source procurements for specific manufacturer products.
