UNSPSC 40172523: Corrugated pipe connector

A connecting pipe used to link corrugated pipes together or to change direction of the pipe.

UNSPSC 40172523 Corrugated pipe connector (Commodity) covers replacement and repair of sanitary and water sewer main pipes, service connection fittings, and related gravity infrastructure in gravity-fed collection and distribution systems—work that state and local governments solicit regularly through infrastructure rehabilitation and capacity-improvement projects. The code reflects actual procurement activity in sewer-main replacement using PVC, HDPE, and related materials rather than standalone corrugated pipe fittings alone; recent state and local solicitations under this code include comprehensive sewer-main rehabilitation and replacement across multiple diameter sizes, service lateral and wye fittings, and mainline point repairs alongside new gravity-sewer extensions. Issuing bodies include county sanitation districts and county public works departments undertaking compliance-driven and capacity-expansion projects, with most recent activity concentrated in sewer-system rehabilitation driven by aging clay pipe replacement, sanitary sewer overflow reduction, and system circulation improvements.

Santa Clara County Sanitation District No. 2-3 and Pinellas County, Florida have posted the most recent opportunities under this code. Sanitation District No. 2-3 released an ITB (Solicitation ITBRDAFY270088) on August 26, 2026 for its Structural Defect Repair Project Phase 2, due September 17, 2026, encompassing thirty-five sanitary sewer mainline point repairs, five mainline pipe-burst replacements, and two sewer mainline extensions using 326 linear feet of 6-inch PVC SDR26, 1,080 linear feet of 6-inch HDPE via pipe bursting, 114 linear feet of 8-inch PVC, 43 linear feet of 10-inch PVC, and service connection wyes in three sizes across the unincorporated eastern foothills. Pinellas County, Florida issued a two-step ITB (Solicitation 260652ITBC) on October 12, 2026 for the Ridgewood Estates Sewer Improvements and 82nd Avenue & 113th Street Water Main Improvements, with minimum qualification submittal due October 13, 2026 and final bids due November 5, 2026, requiring approximately 500 linear feet of 12-inch PVC sanitary sewer pipe, six 4-foot diameter manholes, and approximately 6,800 linear feet of 6-inch water main replacement along overlapping work areas. Both jurisdictions are in California and Florida; recent activity does not support characterization across additional states.
