UNSPSC 40173610: ABS plastic pipe reducing coupling

Pipe reducing coupling made of ABS plastic

UNSPSC 40173610 ABS plastic pipe reducing coupling, a Commodity code, sees limited direct recent activity in state and local procurement, though the code appears in broader water and wastewater infrastructure solicitations. The recent opportunities tied to this code involve replacement and repair of sanitary sewer and water main systems where plastic pipe couplings and fittings feature as component materials rather than standalone procurement items. State and local water authorities, counties, and municipalities solicit these materials as part of larger capital infrastructure projects—sewer mainline rehabilitation, water main replacement, and septic system abatement—where PVC, HDPE, and related plastic pipe assemblies serve the core function. Issuing bodies include county sanitation districts, county utilities authorities, county public works departments, and city water utilities.

Recent solicitations show activity concentrated in California and Florida. Pinellas County, Florida (October 2026, IFB 260652ITBC) is bidding coordinated Ridgewood Estates Sewer Improvements and 82nd Avenue & 113th Street Water Main Improvements projects requiring approximately 500 linear feet of 12-inch PVC sanitary sewer pipe and 6,800 linear feet of 6-inch water main replacement. Santa Clara County Sanitation District No. 2-3 (August 2026, ITB ITBRDAFY270088) is replacing existing vitrified clay pipe and cast iron with PVC SDR26 and HDPE pipe across multiple diameters, including 326 linear feet of 6-inch PVC and 1,080 linear feet of 6-inch HDPE, with service connection fittings and wyes. The City of Marietta, Georgia (August 2026, ITB PE77023NONST2027000000714) solicited water service saddles, couplings, and valves on annual contract. DeKalb County, Georgia (July 2026, ITB 2026-034-ITB) sought quick insertion valves and tapping sleeves under a three-year multiyear contract. Jackson County Utility Authority, Florida (June 2026) requested materials quotes for the South Central Septic Abatement Project under RESTORE funding with Buy American, Build America certification required. Opportunities in this code emphasize unit pricing for component materials and multiyear supply arrangements rather than single-use commodity purchases.
