UNSPSC 40175002: Forged steel pipe weldneck flange

Pipe weldneck flange made of forged steel

UNSPSC 40175002 Forged steel pipe weldneck flange is a Commodity code that in practice covers specialized piping components for infrastructure rehabilitation and construction projects. State and local governments procure these flanged steel pipe assemblies primarily for water and wastewater infrastructure work, where they serve as connection points in mainline distribution and collection systems. The code draws solicitations from county sanitation districts, county transportation departments, and municipal public works agencies undertaking sewer rehabilitation, pipeline replacement, and related capital projects. The work solicited under this code typically involves structural repair and replacement phases of existing deteriorated piping infrastructure, where flanged connections are specified for durability and maintainability in high-stress applications.

Santa Clara County shows the most recent activity under this code. County Sanitation District No. 2–3 in unincorporated eastern foothills issued ITB ITBRDAFY270088 on August 26, 2026, for the Structural Defect Repair Project Phase 2, a sewer infrastructure rehabilitation program with a response deadline of September 17, 2026; the scope includes removal and replacement of sanitary sewer mainline components with PVC and HDPE pipe, service connection fittings, and precast concrete manholes across multiple diameters and locations, with completion required in sixty-five working days from notice to proceed. Santa Clara County also solicited on April 29, 2026, ITB ITBRDAFY260694 for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard, due May 21, 2026, which encompassed pavement rehabilitation, PCC curb and gutter installation, and related roadway improvements over a 142-working-day schedule. Recent activity remains concentrated in California, with Santa Clara County appearing as a repeat buyer of infrastructure rehabilitation services.
