UNSPSC 40171801: Carbon steel pipe angle face ring

Pipe angle face ring made of carbon steel

UNSPSC 40171801 Carbon steel pipe angle face ring is a Commodity code that covers specialized metal pipe components and fittings used in water infrastructure, drainage, and stormwater management projects. State and local governments procure these components as materials-only line items within larger water main replacement, outfall pipe replacement, and stormwater pipe rehabilitation projects, typically bundled with allied fittings, valves, and appurtenances sourced from approved manufacturer lists. The work solicited is primarily materials supply and delivery to specifications, not fabrication or installation. Issuing bodies include cities (Sarasota, Palm Bay, Madison, Lavonia) and counties (Orange County, Brevard County) conducting water and stormwater infrastructure upgrades; these are repeat buyers managing ongoing systems maintenance and expansion. The code also appears in cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell's multi-jurisdictional law enforcement and equipment agreements, broadening potential market reach across state and local entities nationwide.
