UNSPSC 40181603: Welded brass end formed tube

Welded tube made of brass that has been end formed

UNSPSC 40181603 Welded brass end formed tube is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure copper tubing and related materials for water system infrastructure, facility maintenance, and industrial operations. Recent solicitations show that this code encompasses both engineered tubing products (such as Cambridge-Lee Industries Type K soft copper tubing in specified gauges and lengths) and raw copper materials (copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate used in water treatment). The issuing bodies span water districts, county governments, and state departments of corrections, reflecting a mix of utilities, facilities operations, and specialized industrial procurement.

Activity under the code appears in California and Florida, with recent opportunities posted by the Alameda County Water District in Fremont (IFB 252636, April 2026, copper tubing delivery), Pasco County, Florida (RFQFP 261004, June 2026, indefinite-quantity copper sulfate supply on an as-needed basis), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (IW245930, copper tubing, bid deadline April 2026). The Alameda County Water District's April 2026 IFB specified 2,000 feet of 3/4" Type K soft copper tubing in 100-foot rolls, 4,800 feet of 3/4" Type K soft in 60-foot rolls, and 1,200 feet of 1" Type K soft in 60-foot rolls, with delivery required during warehouse hours at the Fremont headquarters; bids were evaluated on price and prompt payment discounts of 15 days or more. Pasco County's indefinite-quantity solicitation for large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate carried a June 26, 2026 proposal deadline but disclosed no estimated volume, contract term, or evaluation criteria. Neither solicitation named set-asides or preference programs beyond Texas Government Code local-vendor consideration in the TDCJ procurement.
