G-tech trace wire boasts excellent electrical conductivity. With a DC resistance as low as 5.0 ohms per 1000 feet, it ensures efficient transmission of locating signals, enabling locators to accurately identify the position and path of underground utilities even over long distances. The wire features exceptional corrosion resistance. Constructed with a high-quality tinned copper conductor and a durable polyethylene (PE) insulation layer, it can withstand harsh underground environments, including exposure to moisture, chemicals, and varying soil conditions. Its service life is extended to more than 20 years, significantly reducing maintenance and replacement costs. In terms of tensile strength, G-tech trace wire reaches up to 300 pounds, making it highly resistant to stretching and breaking during installation and backfilling operations, ensuring stable performance throughout the project lifecycle.
Tracer lines provide indications for the direction andspatial location of plastic pipeline systems,aiding infuture maintenance and other construction activities,confirming the spatial position of plastic pipelines,andavoiding the possibility of being cut or damaged byconstruction machinery.The product design is to coat alayer of medium density polyethylene PE80 coating oncopper-clad steel wire.The steel wire providessufficient strength,the copper plating layer providesexcellent conductivity,and the PE coating providesgood corrosion resistance.
