UNSPSC 40172309: CPVC plastic pipe bushing

Pipe bushing made of CPVC plastic

UNSPSC 40172309 CPVC plastic pipe bushing is a Commodity code covering plastic pipe fittings and small connectors used in water distribution and utility infrastructure maintenance. State and local governments procure CPVC bushings as part of materials-only packages for water main replacement, pipeline maintenance, and system rehabilitation projects. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span municipal water utilities, county water and wastewater services departments, and city procurement offices managing potable water system infrastructure.

Recent activity shows the code most active in Florida and Arizona. The City of Sarasota issued ITB 26-31JS in June 2026 for materials including pipe, fittings, and appurtenances for a Small AC Water Main Replacement project, requiring all materials to conform to the city's Potable Water Approved Material List and mandating twelve-month warranties with guaranteed delivery within ninety calendar days. The City of Phoenix Water Services Department solicited water pipe and miscellaneous fittings under IFB 260217 in February 2026 for a five-year contract beginning May 1, 2026, specifying AWWA, ASTM, and ANSI standards with NSF certifications for potable water components and requiring bidders to maintain local inventory with next-day delivery capability on captive parts. Both solicitations emphasize strict conformance to approved materials lists, American standards compliance, local inventory and delivery logistics, and warranty coverage. The code shows steady but narrow activity—CPVC bushings appear as line items within broader materials-procurement efforts rather than as standalone solicitations, and recent opportunities concentrate in municipal water utility maintenance rather than new construction or large-scale system development.
