Benefits

1. Enhanced Detection: The detectable aluminum foil tape is embedded with an aluminum tracer wire, ensuring that it can be easily located with underground locators. This makes it ideal for marking non-metallic utility lines like plastic pipes or cables.
2. Durable Protection: Made with a high-quality aluminum core and wrapped in protective polyethylene (PE) layers, this tape resists moisture, corrosion, and temperature variations, offering long-term protection for buried utilities.
3. Versatile Color Options: Available in multiple colors, including red, yellow, blue, and green, the tape can be customized to match APWA standard color codes, ensuring clear identification of different underground utilities.
4. Cost-Effective Solution: By purchasing directly from a metallic caution tape factory, you can get a competitive detectable tape price. Bulk buying provides cost savings while maintaining high-quality standards.
5. Industry Compliance: This tape is a statutory requirement for safety in the workplace, ensuring compliance with utility marking standards and preventing accidental damage to critical underground utilities.
6. Wide Applicability: Perfect for marking water line tracer tape, detectable communication tape, and other buried infrastructure like gas, water, sewer, and telecommunication lines.

Technical Data Sheet

Types of Metallic Tape Caution Buried

Red

• Use: Electric Power Lines
• Purpose: To indicate buried electrical power cables, conduits, and lighting cables. It serves as a warning to prevent accidental digging into electrical lines.

Yellow

• Use: Gas, Oil, or Steam Lines
• Purpose: To mark buried gas, oil, steam, petroleum, or other gaseous materials. This is critical for preventing damage to pressurized systems during excavation.

Orange

• Use: Communications and Signal Lines
• Purpose: To signify buried telecommunications cables, alarm systems, or signal lines. Used in industries like telecommunications and alarm systems to keep these lines safe from accidental damage.

Blue

• Use: Drinking Water Lines
• Purpose: Marks the location of clean, potable water lines. It helps ensure that drinking water pipelines are not accidentally damaged during excavation.

Green

• Use: Sewer and Drain Lines
• Purpose: To identify buried sewer and drainage pipes. It ensures workers are aware of the location of waste lines to avoid contamination or damage.

Purple

• Use: Reclaimed Water Lines
• Purpose: Indicates the location of reclaimed or non-potable water lines, including irrigation systems or recycled water infrastructure.

Applications

• Utility Protection: Detectable pipe marking tape is placed directly above buried utility lines such as water pipes, gas pipelines, electrical cables, and telecommunication conduits. It acts as an early warning system to prevent accidental digging or damage.
• Traffic and Construction Areas: Widely used in construction zones to demarcate hazardous areas, the tape helps in traffic alerts, road sign markings, and construction site segregation, ensuring that workers are aware of buried utility locations.
• Sewer and Water Line Detection: Ideal for marking water line tracer tape and sewer lines, the tape ensures that any digging or excavation doesn’t accidentally disturb these vital systems, which can lead to costly repairs or service disruptions.
• Telecommunication and Electrical Utilities: Often used for detectable communication tape in telecom projects, this aluminum foil tape helps protect cables and lines from excavation damage, ensuring uninterrupted services.
• Emergency and Crime Scene Usage: The tape is also useful for emergency isolation, crime scene segregation, and marking areas requiring quarantine, providing both visibility and safety in critical situations.
• Petrochemical and Industrial Applications: In the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries, this tape is used to mark metallic piping installations, ensuring the safe installation and maintenance of systems.
