UNSPSC 40174911: HDPE plastic pipe union

Pipe union made of HDPE plastic

UNSPSC 40174911 HDPE plastic pipe union is a Commodity code that captures individual pipeline connection components used in water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure projects procured by state and local jurisdictions. Based on recent activity, state and local governments buy these unions as discrete components specified within larger pavement rehabilitation, utility installation, and drainage system projects rather than as standalone items. The code appears primarily in infrastructure modernization and ADA compliance work where drainage and utility modifications require standardized piping connections. Issuing bodies include county transportation and public works departments; the source shows limited repeat-buyer activity under this specific commodity code, with opportunities emerging from larger capital improvement solicitations rather than dedicated component procurement cycles.

Santa Clara County in California posted an ITB (ITBRDAFY260694) on April 29, 2026, for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard with a May 21, 2026, response deadline. The scope included pavement rehabilitation, curb and gutter installation, ADA access improvements, and bioretention basin installation — work that would incorporate standardized unions within the broader infrastructure scope. The second recent posting, from the Greater Louisville Workforce Development Board (RFP 260177, due March 20, 2026), addressed construction trades training and placement rather than procurement of materials, indicating limited relevant activity under this commodity code in the recent opportunity set. Geographic activity centers on California and Kentucky based on the posted opportunities, though the sparse recent record suggests this code does not consistently surface in state and local solicitations as a standalone line item or primary procurement focus.
