This high-visibility orange tape features bold black lettering with the legend "Caution: Buried Fiber Optic Line Below," providing an immediate visual warning to excavators. Manufactured from 100% virgin LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) with lead-free pigments and color stabilizers, this tape offers exceptional resistance to bleeding and is highly durable against alkaline, chemical, and organic compounds commonly found in underground environments.
