Manufactured by Copperhead Industries, this tracer wire exemplifies high-performance engineering through its copper-clad steel (CCS) design, combining the durability of low-carbon steel with the excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance of copper. It features a 30 mil high-density polyethylene (HDPE) insulation that provides robust protective qualities specifically tailored for direct burial applications, ensuring long-lasting underground performance. Notably, this wire is 11% lighter than solid copper alternatives, leading to reduced freight expenses while maintaining an impressive break load of 302 lbs. Utility identification is a breeze with its color-coding that meets American Public Works standards, making it an essential choice for utility contractors. The inseparable metallurgical bond between the copper and steel enhances reliability by eliminating concerns over separation or corrosion, while also mitigating theft appeal. With these innovative features and robust construction, this tracer wire stands out as a versatile solution for a variety of underground applications.
