UNSPSC 40173401: Brass pipe plate flange

Pipe plate flange made of brass

UNSPSC 40173401 Brass pipe plate flange is a Commodity code that covers flanged pipe fittings and restraining devices used in water distribution, sanitary, and stormwater infrastructure projects. State and local governments procure these fittings—including ductile iron pipe (DIP) restraining devices, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) joint restraining devices, cast iron flanged fittings, and miscellaneous water pipe fittings—as consumable inventory for utility maintenance, capital improvement projects, and system expansions. Issuing bodies span county water and utility departments, municipal water services divisions, and county transportation authorities. Santa Clara County, Palm Beach County, the City of Tampa, and the City of Phoenix have all posted recent solicitations for flanged fittings and related devices, indicating steady procurement activity across both large metropolitan areas and county-level utilities.

Recent opportunities show strong geographic concentration in California and Florida.
