Designed to mark, locate and help protect underground utility lines. The tape serves the dual purpose of (1) allowing location from above ground and (2) providing a visual warning to prevent third party damage.

The tape reads: CAUTION FIBRE OPTIC CABLE BELOW

Plastic warning tape with a twin stainless steel tracer wire system. The two wires are laminated within the tape in a continuous ‘wave’ pattern that allows them to stretch by over 25%, which helps combat underground movement. The tapes are self-coloured and overprinted with a warning message. The printing is protected by a ‘scratch resistant’ covering of transparent plastic

Our Crimping Tool is used for joining the tracer wires embedded in Warning Tapes via mechanical crimps, critical to maintaining conductivity of the tracer wires throughout the route of the protected duct.

Our Warning Tape Crimps are used to join the wire within the warning tape when laying duct to ensure continuity of the signal.
