Detectable Underground Tape “Caution Buried Fiber Optic Line”

IDEAL® Detectable Underground Tape is a trusted solution for marking hazardous areas, featuring bold black lettering that warns “Caution Buried Fiber Optic Line” on a bright orange background. Its solid aluminum-foil core construction is designed to protect, locate, and identify underground utility installations, helping to safeguard workers by alerting them to hazards like buried electrical and communication cables. This tape can be detected with a non-ferrous locator and is formulated to resist degradation from acids and alkalis found in soils. With a durable 5 mil thickness and a high tensile strength of 15,000 PSI, it ensures long-lasting performance. Additionally, it uses lead-free pigments and organic lead-free ink, and meets or exceeds industry standards, including the American Public Works Association (APWA) color code.
