Seamless tube made of copper that has been end formed

UNSPSC 40182003 Seamless copper end formed tube, a Commodity code, covers copper tubing and copper-based repair components that state and local governments procure for water infrastructure, facilities maintenance, and utility operations. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local buyers purchasing copper tubing in specified gauges and lengths, brass water repair fittings and accessories, and copper sulfate for water treatment or algae control. The work spans supply-and-delivery arrangements for inventory replenishment, as-needed purchasing vehicles, and incorporation into larger capital projects such as pavement rehabilitation work that includes utility infrastructure updates.

Issuing bodies range across municipal water utilities, county water districts, state agencies, and county governments. The Alameda County Water District, the City of Arlington Texas, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Pasco County, Florida posted opportunities under or closely aligned with this code between March and June 2026, with geographic activity concentrated in Texas, California, and Florida.
