Why it works

Why lay this warning tape

Highly visible

Bright red film with bold black print stands out clearly when a trench is opened, giving diggers immediate warning.

Detectable underground

An embedded tracer wire lets the tape be located with a standard cable or pipe locator before digging reaches the pumping main.

Rot resistant

LDPE film resists rot and degradation underground, so the warning stays intact for the life of the buried main.

Marked for pumping main routes

Printed along its full length so crews identify a pressurised pumping main before digging reaches it.
Overview

Detectable Underground Tape (Sewer Pumping Main) 150mm x 100m - Overview

This is a red detectable underground tape printed with a CAUTION warning for a sewer pumping main route, laid above the buried main during backfill to warn anyone digging later, with an embedded tracer wire so it can also be located with a cable or pipe locator.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tape detectable once it's buried?

Yes, it has an embedded tracer wire running its length, so a cable or pipe locator can find it after burial - useful if the surface warning is later covered or worn.

How deep should I lay this above the pumping main?

Lay it in the backfill above the main, below the final surface layer, so it's the first thing found if the trench is reopened. Follow your project's or the water authority's own depth specification.

Why is this tape red?

Red marks this route as a sewer pumping main. We stock the same detectable tape range in other colours for gas, electric, water and telecoms services.

How long is each roll?

Each roll is 100m, supplied as one continuous length rather than joined sections.

What is the tape made from?

LDPE (low-density polyethylene) film, 120 micron thick, with an embedded tracer wire.

Can I lift and reuse this tape?

No, it's designed to be laid once in the backfill and left buried as a permanent marker and locating aid.

What does the printed warning say?

It carries a bold CAUTION message identifying the pumping main below, repeated along the full length. Ask us to confirm the exact wording on your roll before ordering if you need it for a method statement.
