About UNSPSC 40182002

UNSPSC 40182002 Seamless copper pierced tube, a Commodity-tier code, encompasses water and utility infrastructure repair parts sourced by state and local water districts, municipal utilities, and government facilities maintenance operations. State and local governments procure copper tubing and related water repair components under this code for warehouse stock replenishment, infrastructure maintenance, and facility operations. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code span municipal utilities (city water departments), county water districts, county government facilities, and state corrections departments. The City of Arlington, Texas and Alameda County Water District in California represent repeat buyers with established procurement cycles for copper tubing and brass water repair parts inventory.

Recent activity centers in Texas and California. The City of Arlington posted an annual requirements contract for brass water repair parts (Solicitation 270041, due October 22, 2026) covering brass service line fittings, accessories, and tapping saddles for water warehouse stock. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited copper tubing via Invitation for Bids (IFB IW245930, bid deadline April 7, 2026). The Alameda County Water District issued an IFB on April 22, 2026 (due April 27, 2026) for 8,000 feet of Type K soft copper tubing in specified gauges and roll lengths to its Fremont headquarters. A Pasco County, Florida opportunity (RFQFP261004, June 3–26, 2026) sought copper sulfate chemicals rather than tubing, indicating some code-tagging variance in state and local systems. Opportunities across the three-state footprint use standard notice types—IFB, RFQ, annual requirements contracts—with response windows typically two to four weeks.
