UNSPSC 40182602: Extruded brass pierced tube

Extruded tube made of brass that has been pierced

UNSPSC 40182602 Extruded brass pierced tube is a Commodity code covering brass and copper tubing and fittings used by state and local water utilities, government agencies, and public infrastructure operators for repair, maintenance, and capital improvement projects. Recent state and local solicitations under this code focus on brass service line fittings, accessories, tapping saddles, and copper tubing in multiple gauges and lengths, typically procured as annual requirements contracts or on an as-needed basis to replenish maintenance inventory. Issuing bodies include municipal water departments, county water districts, state criminal justice agencies, and county governments. The work is straightforward commodity procurement with firm specifications and brand requirements; vendors compete primarily on price, delivery terms, and compliance with payment and bonding provisions.

Recent activity spans Texas, California, and Florida. The City of Arlington, Texas posted an annual requirements contract for brass water repair parts (Solicitation 270041, IFB, due October 22, 2026) covering service line fittings, accessories, and tapping saddles for warehouse stock. The Alameda County Water District in California issued an IFB (Solicitation IFB252636, due April 27, 2026) for Cambridge-Lee Industries copper tubing in three product configurations totaling 8,000 feet across multiple gauges, delivered to its Fremont headquarters. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited copper tubing on an IFB basis (Solicitation IW245930, closed April 7, 2026) with standard state compliance and E-Verify requirements. Pasco County, Florida issued an as-needed request for proposal (Solicitation RFQFP261004, due June 26, 2026) for copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate. Water utilities dominate the issuing-body mix, though state correctional and environmental agencies also procure under this code.
