UNSPSC 40174706: Malleable iron pipe threaded flange

Pipe threaded flange made of malleable iron

UNSPSC 40174706 Malleable iron pipe threaded flange is a Commodity code covering cast iron and ductile iron pipe fittings, flanges, and related joint restraint components used in water infrastructure, pavement rehabilitation, and municipal utility systems. State and local governments soliciting under this code purchase finished pipe fittings (flanged outlets, reducers, tees, elbows), mechanical joint restraining devices for ductile iron and PVC pipe, and accessory packages containing gaskets, bolts, and nuts. Issuing bodies include water utilities, public works departments, and county transportation authorities spanning Florida, California, and Arizona. The mix of solicitations—from county pavement projects to city water-system term contracts—reflects demand across utility maintenance, capital improvement, and infrastructure rehabilitation work. Bidders typically face commercial general liability insurance requirements ($1–2 million per occurrence), five-year operational history thresholds, and compliance with local SBE preferences where designated.

Recent activity includes Santa Clara County's April 2026 ITB for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (due May 21, 2026), which bundled pipe and fitting work within a larger pavement and traffic infrastructure scope; Palm Beach County's April 2026 IFB for mechanical joint restraining devices in two lots covering ductile iron pipe and PVC pipe sizes (due June 4, 2026, with $200,000 anticipated contract value over twelve months and a ten percent SBE price preference); the City of Tampa's March 2026 RFQ for Standard Class 125 flanged fittings in five line items (due February 25, 2026); and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's February 2026 IFB for water pipe and miscellaneous fittings across 15 product groups for a five-year term commencing May 1, 2026, with pre-offer conference on February 4, 2026, and sealed bids due February 19, 2026. Geographic concentration appears strongest in Florida (Palm Beach County, Tampa) and the Southwest (Phoenix), with periodic activity in California.
