Overview

The ABB Foil-Backed Detectable Buried Utility Tape (SKU NAF-0602) is a specialized underground marking solution designed for clear identification of telephone lines. This 3-inch-wide, 1000-foot roll features a bright orange background with black "TELEPHONE LINE" legend for high-visibility marking. The tape includes a 35-gauge solid aluminum foil core, enabling detection with standard metal locators up to 18 inches below ground. Constructed from 4 mil polyethylene with environmentally safe ink encapsulation, it resists soil degradation from acids and alkalis while maintaining legibility over time. Unlike standard utility tapes, the foil backing provides detectable contrast against natural soil, simplifying future excavation and maintenance tasks. This tape is part of ABB’s foil-backed detectable series, ensuring reliable performance in utility corridors, construction zones, and municipal infrastructure projects. Ideal for utility companies, contractors, and municipal workers requiring precise line location and damage prevention.
