Metallics BT3GL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is non-detectable gas tape like the Metallics BT3GL the right choice, or do I need detectable tape?
Non-detectable tape such as the BT3GL carries no metal core, so it only warns a crew that has already opened the ground. If the utility has to be traceable from the surface with a locator, you need detectable tape with a foil backing instead. Many gas specs call for detectable tape over plastic pipe for exactly that reason, so check the spec on the drawing before you order the non-detectable version.
2) Does the Metallics BT3GL marking tape only apply to gas lines?
The BT3GL is printed as gas warning tape, so it should be used over gas piping only. Using gas-legend tape over water, sewer, or electrical runs misidentifies the utility to the next crew in the trench; order the tape printed for that service instead.
3) How many Metallics BT3GL rolls do I need for a trench run?
Each BT3GL roll covers 1,000 linear feet of trench with one tape line. Count one roll per 1,000 feet of run, and double it if your spec calls for two tape layers at different depths over the same line.
