Utility System Construction

In Utility System Construction, pipe crews, equipment operators, foremen, underground utility installers, welders, and linemen build and repair the networks that move water, sewer, gas, power, and communications. A typical job can involve trenching, shoring, fusion or welded joints, vault and manhole work, pump station tie-ins, pressure testing, and work around live lines or existing buried services. Zoro has served U.S. businesses since 2011 and stocks 14+ million products used on utility projects, from pipe lasers, marking paint, trench safety gear, and confined-space equipment to valves, gaskets, fittings, fasteners, abrasives, electrical test tools, and PPE. Buyers can source the items that keep crews moving between line installation, maintenance work, and repairs on related structures such as storage tanks and pumping stations. Utility work often brings OSHA trenching, excavation, and confined-space requirements into play, along with lockout/tagout practices during pump, power, and control work. Zoro fits the workflow for contractors who need the right consumables, safety gear, and replacement parts to complete utility system construction work with fewer jobsite delays.
