UNSPSC 40174708: PVC plastic pipe threaded flange

Pipe threaded flange made of PVC plastic

UNSPSC 40174708 PVC plastic pipe threaded flange is a Commodity code for polyvinyl chloride pipe and fittings used in sanitary sewer infrastructure rehabilitation and mainline extensions. State and local governments procure this product primarily through county sanitation districts and county public works departments undertaking sewer system repair, replacement, and expansion projects. The work involves removal and replacement of aging vitrified clay pipe and cast iron with PVC pipe at multiple diameters, along with associated service connection fittings such as wyes and laterals. Contractors sourcing this commodity typically bundle it with labor for pipe installation, pipe bursting operations, and related trench work as part of broader capital infrastructure rehabilitation programs.

Both solicitations required physical bid delivery to the County Government Center in San Jose and did not accept electronic submissions.
