The Pegdev Detectable Mesh Water Pipe Marker is an essential safety tool for professional contractors, utility companies, and landscapers tasked with identifying and protecting underground water lines. By combining a highly visible warning label with an integrated detectable wire, it provides a dual-layer defense against accidental damage during excavation, though it requires careful tensioning during installation to ensure it stays in place over the pipe.

The mesh is 200mm wide.
The roll covers 23 meters.
This specific marker is labeled for water pipes; using incorrect marking colors or labels for other utilities may violate safety regulations.
No, the wire is passive and is energized by an external signal generator used by the utility locator tool.
No, this is a single-use safety product designed to be left permanently in the ground.
It is certified to EN 12613.
Check that the locating equipment is tuned to the correct frequency and that there is no break in the wire during installation.
Ensure the mesh is held in place by a light layer of soil or sand before compacting the full trench.
Installation requires laying the mesh flat over the backfilled pipe material before final site grading. Ensure the mesh is not twisted during the process to maintain the readability of the warning text. The wire ends should be accessible or anchored if you intend to use them for systematic mapping. For care, avoid using sharp tools near the mesh during installation to prevent compromising the integrated wire. The material is designed for permanent underground placement and requires no maintenance once properly buried.
