UNSPSC 40173506: Malleable iron pipe plug

Pipe plug made of malleable iron

UNSPSC 40173506 Malleable iron pipe plug (Commodity) does not align with the scope of state and local procurement activity actually being solicited under recent opportunities tagged to this code. The recent-opportunities block shows no direct solicitations for malleable iron pipe plugs; instead, the records document active procurement across industrial pipe and fittings supply (HDPE and PVC pipe in multiple diameters, couplings, elbows, wyes, tees, bends, and related fittings), sewer infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects involving pipe and service-connection fittings, stormwater outfall piping replacement, and pavement rehabilitation work. These opportunities fall into broader industrial pipe and construction categories rather than the narrow commodity scope of this code.

The geographic activity shown spans Arizona (City of Phoenix, two separate IFBs for industrial pipe and miscellaneous fittings supply), Georgia (City of Augusta ITB for HDPE pipe and couplings), California (Santa Clara County Sanitation District sewer infrastructure project and Santa Clara County pavement rehabilitation project), and Florida (Orange County bridge replacements, City of Palm Bay outfall pipe replacement and stormwater RFI). The sole solicitation nominally relevant to malleable iron fittings—the Phoenix Public Works IFBs (IFB27SW0447 posted September 30, 2026, and IFB26SW0379 posted August 12, 2026)—focuses on HDPE and PVC pipe supply on an as-needed basis for the Phoenix Aviation Department, with delivery within 24 to 48 hours, local inventory maintenance, and firm fixed pricing for a three-year term with two one-year options. The City of Augusta ITB 27-116 (due September 29, 2026) covers HDPE pipe and couplings for stormwater and drainage, subject to minority and women-owned business enterprise requirements and a local-bidder preference for awards under $100,000. This code shows little recent relevant activity; opportunities under it do not target malleable iron pipe plugs as a distinct product line.
