COPPERHEAD® TRACER WIRE

The Copperhead® Tracer Wire System ensures non-metal pipelines can be accurately located for the life of the pipeline. Copperhead Copper Clad Steel Tracer Wire combines the conductivity of copper (for easy detection) with the strength of steel. The high-strength carbon steel core makes the wire ideal for directional drilling applications (as well as trenching), minimising wire breaks. Every wire has a protective insulating sheath to prevent corrosion.

  • Superior impact strength
  • Strong, resilient, and flexible
  • 11% lighter than solid copper
  • Superior underground protection
