Mains Marker Tape Buried Communications Cable Below
150 mm × 500 m | White with Stainless Steel Tracer Wire
This Buried Communications Cable Marker Tape with integrated stainless steel tracer wire is designed to provide clear visual and detectable warning of underground communications cables and services during excavation and construction works. Installed above buried cables, it helps prevent accidental damage, improves site safety, and supports best practice utility identification.
Manufactured from durable white, non adhesive plastic, the tape is suitable for long term underground installation. The bold black “COMMUNICATIONS CABLE BURIED BELOW” message ensures clear identification when uncovered, while the stainless steel tracer wire enables accurate electronic detection prior to excavation. The tape is environmentally friendly and compliant with Australian Standards AS2648 Part 1 1995.
