adhesion to be no less than 90% to ensure long-lasting effectiveness.
Colour: Orange base colour with black overprint, providing
high visibility in various soil conditions.
Dimensions: 100mm width x 100 micron thickness x 250 metres.
Roll core diameter of 76mm for easy dispensing.
Tracer wire included, measuring 0.7mm in diameter, enhancing
detectability.
Material: Constructed from high-quality polyethylene tape,
thermoplastic in nature.
Stainless steel grade ASTM A276/316 is centrally welded to
one face of the tape in a wave pattern, with 50% exposure to the soil.
Stainless steel is electrically conductive, ensuring
efficient detection of underground cables.

both alkaline and acidic soil conditions.
Fungus resistant for durability in various environmental
conditions.
Application:
Underground Cable Identification: Primarily designed for
marking and identifying the presence of electrical cables below the ground.
Safety Warning: Conveys a clear and repeated warning message
to prevent accidental damage during excavation or construction activities.
Detectability: The inclusion of a detectable tracer wire
enhances the tape's visibility and facilitates easy detection using appropriate
equipment.
Versatile Use: Suitable for a range of soil conditions,
including those with alkaline or acidic properties.
Durable Construction: Tear resistance of 7.0N at an
elongation of 700%, ensuring longevity and reliability.
