UNSPSC 40181801: Welded steel bent tube

Welded tube made of steel that has been bent

UNSPSC 40181801 Welded steel bent tube is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity describes the supply of various pipe products for stormwater management and highway infrastructure projects. State and local governments use this code to procure reinforced concrete pipe, high-density polyethylene pipe, and corrugated metal pipe in multiple diameters and configurations, typically as materials for drainage systems, curb and gutter installations, and related civil infrastructure. The issuing bodies are transportation and water-resource agencies within county governments, including departments of water resources and public works divisions responsible for capital improvement projects. These buyers execute both project-specific solicitations and standing annual supply contracts with multiple sections to accommodate varying pipe types and specifications.

Recent activity is concentrated in California and Georgia. Santa Clara County (California) issued ITB ITBRDAFY260694 for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard, due May 21, 2026, which includes PCC curb and gutter installation and related pavement improvements across a 142 working-day timeline.
