UNSPSC 40182200: Seamless aluminum tubes

Tubes made of seamless aluminum

UNSPSC 40182200 Seamless aluminum tubes is a Class code that state and local governments procure primarily as component parts for specialized equipment and infrastructure systems. Recent solicitation activity shows the code in use for pump tubing supplies—specifically replacement and maintenance parts for water resource management equipment. Gwinnett County's June 2026 IWQ 132106 solicitation exemplifies the scope: 400 units of pump tubing (manufacturer item 60-6700-062 or approved equivalent) for 5800/4700 and 6700 Series Avalanche Sampler equipment used by the county's water resources operations. Water resource departments and county purchasing offices are the primary issuing bodies under this code, with procurement volumes typically in the range of hundreds of units per solicitation rather than thousands. Vendors must meet standard compliance requirements including worker verification per state law and provide references for similar projects; awards are made on lowest responsive and responsible pricing.

Gwinnett County, Georgia represents the most recent documented activity under this code as of mid-2026. The pump tubing RFQ closed June 30, 2026 with quotations submitted via email to the Gwinnett County Department of Financial Services. A separate June 2026 Santa Clara County opportunity (ITB ITBRDAFY260694 for Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation, due May 21, 2026) was tagged under this code but appears administratively misaligned—that solicitation covers pavement rehabilitation, guardrails, traffic signals, and bioretention basins with no apparent seamless aluminum tubing component, suggesting either a tagging error or subordinate materials not detailed in the primary scope. The code shows limited recent activity; state and local procurement under seamless aluminum tubes remains concentrated in water operations and utility maintenance rather than distributed across multiple issuing-body types.
