UNSPSC 40175211: HDPE plastic pipe wye

Pipe wye made of HDPE plastic

UNSPSC 40175211 HDPE plastic pipe wye, a Commodity code, covers plastic piping components and fittings used in water distribution and utility infrastructure projects. State and local governments procure these products as part of water system maintenance, rehabilitation, and expansion work, where they are specified for their corrosion resistance, lightweight handling, and cost advantages over traditional materials. Recent solicitations show state and local bodies purchasing ductile iron pipe and associated fittings, as well as integrated piping systems for booster pump stations and pavement rehabilitation projects that include water infrastructure upgrades. The issuing bodies span county purchasing departments (Palm Beach County, Santa Clara County, Franklin County) and county boards of commissioners, with a mix of term-contract pre-qualification arrangements and project-specific competitive bids for infrastructure work.

Recent activity appears in Florida, California, and Georgia. Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners posted a pre-qualification RFQ (RPQ68026035BB11) on July 1, 2026 for ductile iron pipe and fittings with a term extending through May 4, 2031, applying a 5% local preference and requiring AWWA and ANSI standards compliance. Santa Clara County issued an ITB (ITBRDAFY260694) on April 29, 2026 (due May 21, 2026) for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project, which includes related infrastructure work but does not specify piping components as a primary scope element. Franklin County, Georgia Board of Commissioners solicited an ITB (PE77589NONST2026000000005) on February 18, 2026 (due March 24, 2026) for water system improvements including a booster pump station with furnishing and installation of pumps and piping. The code's recent representation is modest; the majority of posted opportunities under this code tag focus on broader pipe and fitting categories rather than HDPE plastic wye components specifically.
