UNSPSC 40174301: Brass pipe spacer

Pipe spacer made of brass

UNSPSC 40174301 Brass pipe spacer is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The opportunities posted under this code span industrial pipe supply, water main and sewer line materials, stormwater and outfall pipe replacement, and fire hydrant components—none of which are brass pipe spacers. The City of Phoenix Public Works Department's IFB 26-SW-0379 (due August 12, 2026) solicits HDPE and PVC pipe with fittings and hand tools on an as-needed basis; the City of Sarasota's ITB #26-31JS (deadline passed) requested potable water pipe, fittings, and appurtenances conforming to an approved material list; Orange County, Florida's Y26-742 (due July 7, 2026) is an emergency bridge replacement project; and the City of Palm Bay's ITB 41ITB26 (due July 14, 2026) covers outfall pipe replacement along I-95. The City of Calhoun, Georgia (due June 18, 2026) solicited ductile iron water mains, PVC piping, and mechanical joint fittings; Gwinnett County (due April 23, 2026) requested ductile iron pipe nipples with polyethylene coating; and Orange County's Y26-126 (due January 22, 2026) sought sewer pipes and fittings including PVC and ductile iron products. The issuing bodies are primarily municipal water utilities and public works departments, with activity across Florida (Phoenix, Sarasota, Orange County, Palm Bay), Georgia (Calhoun, Gwinnett County, Lavonia), and California (Santa Clara County). The code shows no current market for brass pipe spacers among state and local buyers; the classification appears misapplied to these opportunities.
