UNSPSC 40173707: PVC plastic pipe reducing flange

Pipe reducing flange made of PVC plastic

UNSPSC 40173707 PVC plastic pipe reducing flange is a Commodity code representing components and fittings used in water infrastructure, wastewater, and pavement projects across state and local jurisdictions. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying mechanical joint restraining devices for PVC pipe, flanged fittings, water distribution system components, and related accessories as part of larger infrastructure rehabilitation and utility maintenance programs. The code spans purchases by county public works departments, city water services divisions, and county boards of commissioners, with issuing bodies ranging from large metropolitan utilities to regional infrastructure authorities. Work solicited includes term contracts for standard catalog items with firm, fixed unit pricing and delivery requirements, often bundled with insurance, warranty, and compliance obligations tied to potable water standards, DBE preferences, or local small-business set-asides.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Florida. Palm Beach County issued IFB #26-038/RR in April 2026 (due June 4, 2026) for mechanical joint restraining devices—solid design restraining devices for ductile iron pipe in 3-inch to 54-inch diameters and solid ring design devices for PVC pipe in 3-inch to 24-inch sizes, with an anticipated contract value of $200,000 over twelve months and SBE and local preference eligibility. The City of Tampa issued RFQ 26-P-00152 in March 2026 (due February 25, 2026) for Standard Class 125 flanged cast iron fittings in five line items, with SLBE certification available and one-year award terms. The City of Phoenix Water Services Department solicited water pipe and miscellaneous fittings under IFB 260217 in February 2026 (due February 19, 2026) for a five-year contract commencing May 1, 2026, covering 15 product groups with AWWA and ASTM conformance requirements and DBE compliance obligations. Santa Clara County's Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (ITB RDAFY260694, due May 21, 2026) included removal and replacement of inductive traffic loops and related drainage infrastructure, reflecting ancillary demand for fittings in broader public works initiatives.
