Overview

The NSi Industries DT3HVR 3-inch wide detectable underground tape is engineered for precise marking and long-term protection of buried high voltage electrical lines. This 1000-foot roll features a bright red base with black legend ('Caution Buried High Voltage Line Below') for high visibility and OSHA/ANSI compliance. Constructed with a minimum 5 mil overall thickness and a 35 gauge solid aluminum foil core, the tape is detectable by standard electromagnetic locators, reducing excavation risks. The polyethylene film is formulated to resist degradation from soil alkalines, acids, and UV exposure, ensuring durability in underground environments. Environmentally safe ink is fully encased to prevent rub-off, maintaining legibility over time. Ideal for utility companies, construction crews, and infrastructure projects, this tape provides a cost-effective warning system for high voltage installations. The 3-inch width allows for clear demarcation while the 1000-foot length minimizes splicing in large-scale projects. Compatible with standard detection equipment, it meets industry safety standards for underground utility marking. The tape's construction includes a solid aluminum foil core, specifically 35 gauge, which is integral to its detectability. This foil core, combined with the overall minimum thickness of 5 mil, provides a robust and easily locatable marker. The bright red color of the tape, coupled with the bold black legend, ensures that the warning message, "Caution Buried High Voltage Line Below," is immediately apparent, contributing to enhanced safety protocols during excavation and maintenance activities. The material's resistance to common soil contaminants like alkalines and acids, as well as its UV resistance, guarantees its integrity and effectiveness even after prolonged burial. The environmentally safe ink is designed to remain legible, as it is fully encased and protected from abrasion, a critical factor for long-term underground marking. This 1000-foot roll is designed for efficiency, reducing the need for frequent jointing and ensuring continuous coverage over extensive areas.
