UNSPSC 40172403: Cast iron pipe cap

Pipe cap made of cast iron

UNSPSC 40172403 Cast iron pipe cap is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement but shows no recent activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities tagged under this code are a Broward County welding and fabrication services contract (RFP OPN2131884B2, due July 1, 2026) and a Santa Clara County pavement rehabilitation project (ITB ITBRDAFY260694, due May 21, 2026). Neither solicitation involves cast iron pipe caps; instead, they address metal fabrication services and roadway construction respectively. The Broward County opportunity calls for portable and shop welding, metal fabrication, and repairs to steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and black steel components at water treatment plants, pump stations, and wastewater facilities, with hourly labor rates, emergency availability requirements, and $107,000 in annual pass-through allowances for materials and permits. The Santa Clara County work encompasses pavement rehabilitation, asphalt overlay, curb and gutter installation, ADA improvements, and traffic signal modifications along a 142 working-day schedule. Both solicitations involve open-end or single-project contracting with state or county water, wastewater, or transportation departments.

The geographic spread is limited to California (Santa Clara County) and Florida (Broward County) based on recent postings. No repeat buyers or established pattern of activity under this code is evident in the recent record. The mismatch between the code's product description and the actual scope of recent opportunities suggests either misclassification in the posting metadata or minimal recent demand for cast iron pipe caps specifically through state and local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB channels. No current market signal supports active pursuit under this code.
