APPROVED MATERIALS LIST

The Approved Materials List contains names of manufacturers whose products and materials are approved for use in the Tucson Water system. There are three sections of Approved Materials contained in this appendix:

1. Distribution System

2. Corrosion/Cathodic

3. Production Facilities

A product is considered approved if it appears on any one of the lists.

Pipe and appurtenances listed are, in general, from 4 to 12 inches. Service materials are from 3/4 inch to 2 inches.

All materials provided for use in the Tucson Water system must be new.

Tucson Water will review approved material list annually and reserves the right to make changes based upon product representation, quality, availability, and based upon the needs of the Department.

Pipelines and appurtenances larger than 12 inches are project specific and—per TW Standard Detail 105, note 34—require submittals to Tucson Water for approval for use in the system.

Submittals are not required for products contained in the Approved Materials List, unless required by contract specifications or the controlling agency.

A product approval application is included at the end of this list.
