A trace to follow
Wave-form stainless steel wire gives locating crews a traceable element along the marked water-main route.

Once the trench is filled, a water main still needs to be found for the next repair or connection. Leave a trace of the route while it’s in reach. Choose DETECTAMESH® Water Main for buried water services that need a printed warning and a traceable marker. Green mesh carries the black message “Danger Buried Water Main Below”. A stainless steel wire gives locating equipment a conductive element to trace. The printed mesh identifies the service when exposed, helping future crews recognise what lies below.

Green mesh and a black Water Main message help crews identify the buried service when the marker is exposed.
Add Location Tools to
A locator and signal transmitter help crews trace conductive elements when planning work around buried services. Ask Tapex to confirm the equipment, accessories and connection method for the installed DETECTAMESH wire. A detected route still needs site verification.

Upgrade to Overpipe® Plates
Where the project calls for a penetration barrier, ask Tapex about OVERPIPE® protection plates. The 15 mm-thick HDPE plate provides physical protection above buried services. Select the plate and installation layout for the project; warning mesh serves a different role.
