Why it works
Why lay this tape above the pipe
Easy to spot
Bold black print on bright blue film stands out clearly the moment a trench is reopened, warning diggers well before they reach the pipe.
Traceable once buried
An embedded tracer wire means the tape's route can still be picked up with a standard cable or pipe locator long after it's covered over.
Holds up underground
LDPE film doesn't rot or break down in wet ground, so the tape keeps doing its job for as long as the water main stays in place.
Colour matches the standard
Blue is the recognised colour for marking buried water pipe routes across the utilities sector, so crews know instantly what's below.
Overview
Detectable Underground Tape (Water Pipe) 150mm x 100m - Overview

Frequently asked questions
Does this tape include a tracer wire?
Does this tape include a tracer wire?
Yes - a single tracer wire runs the full length, so once the tape is buried its route can still be picked up with a cable or pipe locator.
At what depth should this go in the trench?
At what depth should this go in the trench?
Lay it in the backfill above the water pipe, below the final surface layer, so it turns up before the pipe does if anyone digs there again. Check your project's or the water company's own depth requirement.
Why blue?
Why blue?
Blue is the standard colour for marking buried water pipe routes. The same tape is also available printed for gas, electric and other services in their own colours.
What length does one roll cover?
What length does one roll cover?
100m per roll, 150mm wide.
What material is it made from?
What material is it made from?
LDPE film, 120 micron thick, with an embedded tracer wire.
Can it be lifted and reused?
Can it be lifted and reused?
No - it's a one-time-use marker meant to stay in the ground once laid.
Does the print fade underground?
Does the print fade underground?
No, the black print is set into the film so it remains readable even after long-term burial.
