UNSPSC 40173103: Stainless steel pipe lapjoint flange

Pipe lapjoint flange made of stainless steel

UNSPSC 40173103 Stainless steel pipe lapjoint flange is a Commodity code that encompasses mechanical joint restraining devices, flanged fittings, and water infrastructure components for municipal water systems and infrastructure rehabilitation. State and local governments procure these items for water distribution system maintenance, pavement and utility rehabilitation projects, and general infrastructure upgrades. The issuing bodies range across county water authorities, municipal water departments, and city procurement offices, with recent activity spanning Florida counties and southwestern municipalities.

Recent opportunities reflect diverse geographic spread and project types. Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners issued IFB #26-038/RR in April 2026 for mechanical joint restraining devices (solid design for ductile iron pipe and solid ring design for polyvinyl chloride pipe, 3 to 54 inches in diameter), with an anticipated contract value of $200,000 over twelve months and a June 4, 2026 response deadline; the City of Tampa issued RFQ 26-P-00152 in March 2026 for Standard Class 125 flanged fittings (cast iron flanged outlet flanges, reducers, and tees) with a February 25, 2026 deadline; and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department solicited water pipe and miscellaneous fittings under IFB 260217 for a five-year term commencing May 2026, encompassing 15 product groups with quantities ranging from 2 to over 21,000 units, with sealed offers due February 19, 2026. All three water-sector procurements specify AWWA, ASTM, and ANSI compliance, include SBE and local-preference provisions, and require insurance and warranty documentation. Santa Clara County issued a separate pavement rehabilitation ITB in April 2026 (due May 21, 2026) that includes miscellaneous infrastructure components but does not focus on the stainless steel pipe flange products central to this code, indicating limited direct relevance under this commodity classification.
