Wal-rich 1842602 Blue Tracer Wire 14 Gauge 500 Ft

Product Description

The WAL-RICH 1842602 is a 14-gauge blue tracer wire designed for underground pipe and conduit locating applications. This product is a go-to solution for plumbers, utility contractors, and pipeline technicians who need a reliable way to trace non-metallic pipes after burial. When plastic or PVC pipe is installed underground, it cannot be detected by standard pipe locators. Tracer wire solves this problem by running alongside the pipe and transmitting a signal to the surface when connected to a locating device. The blue color coding is the recognized industry standard for potable water lines, making it easy to identify the utility type during future excavation or maintenance work. This 500-foot spool gives crews enough wire for long runs without the need for multiple splices, reducing potential signal loss points along the route. The solid copper core ensures strong conductivity, which is critical for accurate locating signals over long distances. The 30-mil polyethylene jacket provides durable protection against moisture, soil chemicals, and physical abrasion in direct-burial environments. At 8.1 pounds, the spool is manageable for one-person handling on most job sites. HVAC installers, plumbers, and underground utility workers will find this wire meets common specifications for tracer wire installations. The 14-gauge rating balances conductivity with flexibility, making it easy to unspool and lay alongside pipe during trenching operations. Contractors working in states with one-call locating requirements will find this wire suitable for compliant installations. Whether you are installing a new water service, irrigation mainline, or underground utility, the WAL-RICH 1842602 tracer wire delivers consistent performance in direct-burial conditions.

• 14-gauge solid copper conductor for strong, long-distance locating signal transmission
