UNSPSC 40183010: High pressure rubber tubing with assembly

A hollow cylinder or pipe of rubber usually long in proportion to its diameter, including additional affixed components such as brackets, fittings and the like, used for conveying fluids under high pressure.

UNSPSC 40183010 High pressure rubber tubing with assembly is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure replacement pump tubing and related fluid-conveyance components for water and utility equipment. Recent solicitations reveal the code captures both OEM-specific tubing replacements for specialized sampler and treatment equipment and, by apparent misclassification, general pavement rehabilitation projects. The relevant activity centers on water utility departments acquiring tubing assemblies to maintain operational equipment such as water samplers and pumps. Issuing bodies include county water resources departments and county purchasing divisions operating on behalf of operational agencies.

Activity appears concentrated in the Southeast and West. Gwinnett County, Georgia's Department of Financial Services solicited 400 units of pump tubing (manufacturer item 60-6700-062 or equivalent) for Avalanche Sampler equipment via quotation request IWQ 132106, with a due date of June 30, 2026. Santa Clara County, California issued an invitation to bid for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard with a May 21, 2026 bid deadline; this solicitation, tagged to the code, concerns construction labor and materials for pavement overlay and ADA improvements rather than tubing assemblies, suggesting misclassification. The Gwinnett County quotation represents a more accurate fit for the code's scope and reflects the typical state and local buying pattern: small-to-medium volume equipment-replacement parts sourced through county purchasing offices for end-use water utility operations.
