UNSPSC 40183000: Rubber and plastic tubing

Tubing made of rubber and plastic materials

UNSPSC 40183000 Rubber and plastic tubing is a Class code covering replacement and maintenance tubing supplies for specialized equipment used by state and local water, wastewater, and infrastructure agencies. State and local governments procure under this code primarily for equipment-specific replacement parts—such as pump tubing for water-sampling or treatment gear—rather than bulk generic tubing stock. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county water departments and county purchasing divisions acting on behalf of operating agencies. The procurement activity is straightforward: short-response RFQ cycles with narrow technical specifications tied to equipment manufacturers and model numbers, typically requiring vendor references and proof of non-collusion compliance.

Gwinnett County Department of Financial Services, Purchasing Division issued an RFQ in June 2026 for 400 units of pump tubing (manufacturer item 60-6700-062 or approved equivalent) for Avalanche Sampler equipment, due June 30, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., with delivery to the Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources Central Facility in Lawrenceville, Georgia. The second opportunity in the block—Santa Clara County's Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (IFB due May 21, 2026)—appears unrelated to rubber and plastic tubing scope and likely represents a misclassification in the source data. Recent activity under this code concentrates in Georgia, with sparse evidence of broader geographic spread in the captured opportunities.
