Metallics DT3SL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the DT3SL tape detectable by a locator, or is it just colored warning tape?
It is detectable tape, not plain plastic warning tape. Detectable tape carries a metallic core so a standard inductive pipe and cable locator can pick up the line after backfill, which is what lets a crew find a non-metallic sewer pipe later. Metallics lists it as the DT3SL detectable sewer line tape.
2) Can I use this Metallics tape over a buried PVC sewer line?
That is exactly what detectable tape is for. PVC and other plastic sewer pipe gives a locator nothing to read, so the tape is laid in the trench above the pipe during backfill to provide the signal path. The DT3SL is specifically a sewer line version, so the printed legend and color are intended for sewer rather than water, gas, or electric.
3) Should I order sewer marking tape or electrical warning tape for a trench with both lines in it?
Use the tape that matches the utility, one length over each line. The Metallics DT3SL is the sewer version, so it goes over the sewer lateral or main; a buried electrical run needs its own electrical-legend tape above the conduit. Mixing them creates a false identification for the next crew that opens the ground.
