UNSPSC 40182005: Seamless copper chamfered tube

Seamless tube made of copper that has been chamfered

UNSPSC 40182005 Seamless copper chamfered tube is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure copper tubing products for water distribution, facility maintenance, and infrastructure systems. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring both finished copper tubing in specified dimensions and grades (such as Type K Soft copper in 3/4" and 1" formats) and raw copper compounds, including copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate used in water treatment and chemical applications. The issuing bodies span water districts, county governments, and state correctional agencies, reflecting the code's application across utility operations, maintenance programs, and facility infrastructure work.

Geographically, recent activity concentrates in California and Texas, with one Florida procurement. The Alameda County Water District issued an IFB on April 22, 2026 (bid deadline April 27, 2026) for 8,000 feet of Cambridge-Lee Industries Type K Soft copper tubing in 3/4" and 1" specifications for delivery to its Fremont headquarters. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted an IFB (IW245930) on March 23, 2026 (bid deadline April 7, 2026) for copper tubing with firm pricing required for 30 days post-bid, F.O.B. destination freight prepaid, and compliance with E-Verify and Texas vendor-preference rules under 34 TAC Rule 20.306. Pasco County, Florida solicited vendors on an indefinite-quantity basis (due June 26, 2026) to supply large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate as needed. A fourth solicitation from Santa Clara County (ITB posted April 29, 2026, due May 21, 2026) for Central Expressway pavement rehabilitation appears unrelated to the code's scope and likely represents a tagging mismatch.
