Terra Tape® is the industry leader in high quality underground detectable and non-detectable marking tapes. Terra Tape® can prevent the dangers of digging into buried lines of all types. Avoid service interruptions, unnecessary loss of revenue and repair expenses that occur when a buried utility is damaged. Terra Tape® underground marking tapes are specified the world over to protect against accidental dig-ins and to alert workers of buried pipes and cables.


Installed 18" or more above the utility, Terra Tape® warns those digging above the lines to proceed with caution.

Available in seven grades, Terra Tape® underground marking tape offers five non-detectable and two detectable grades for your specific application. A wide variety of stock items are available for immediate shipment. Custom sizes and/or printing in any imprint or logo and in any language and in up to 4 ink colors are also available. Custom printing available with minimum order, plate charges and/or ink charges may apply.

All Terra Tape® underground marking tapes are extrusion laminated and the tape color is 100% pigmented plastic not an ink coating as with many manufacturers. Grades are available in standard APWA color codes.

Non-Detectable Underground Warning Tapes (cannot be located with a pipe & cable locator)

  • Extra Stretch™ provides the maximum protection from service interruption dig-ins. When dug up with a backhoe, it will stretch up and out of the ground in one continuous piece alerting the operator to stop digging immediately. Extra Stretch™ underground warning tape is the only product available with the unique combination of high puncture resistance, high tensile strength and high elongation. Extra Stretch™ is ideal for static or vibratory cable plow installations.
  • Premium is a product with very good tensile strength and very high elongation. Premium is also suitable for static or vibratory cable plow installations.
  • Standard is a medium gauge product designed to suit your budget and lesser project requirements. Can be used for static cable plow installations.
  • Economy is a light gauge product designed for your budget.
  • Extra Strength is a woven underground warning tape with extremely high tensile strength but with limited elogation. Although it can be plowed with ease, it is not as good a choice as Extra Stretch™ for preventing dig-ins because it lacks Extra Stretch™'s ability to stretch up out of the ground in one piece.

Detectable Underground Warning Tapes (locatable with a pipe & cable locator)

  • Sentry Line™ Reinforced is the premium detectable tape on the market today. With its superior tensile strength and puncture resistance it can stand up to the most difficult installations without breaking.
  • Sentry Line™ is similar to Sentry Line™ Reinforced tape but with lower tensile strength and puncture resistance.
