Copperhead Tracer Wire / Copperhead Directional Wire
Wire Performance
Installation

Eliminate expensive re-bore due to tracer wire breakage.

Make the switch to Copperhead.

Copperhead Reinforced Directional Tracer Wire significantly outperforms conventional copper tracer wire and is designed strong enough to perform in the toughest directional drilling applications. Copperhead Reinforced Directional Drilling Tracer Wire represents a revolutionary breakthrough for the trenchless industry and offers substantial savings ... consider the comparisons below!

Copperhead
vs.
 Solid Copper Wire
PERFORMANCE
Tensile strength / break load of Copperhead Directional Drill Wire #12 AWG EHS = 1150# 6x strong Strength 6x weak Tensile strength / break load of #12 AWG solid copper = 180#
#10 AWG solid copper = 285#
Copperhead Directional Drill Wire has 6 times the strength of soft drawn solid copper wire One Wire Strength Multiple Wires Multiple strands of copper wire are required in hopes of pulling one through intact
Virgin high-density polyethylene offers strength, flexibility and superior protection underground Strong Wire Coating Weak Vinyl and Nylon coatings are susceptible to moisture, causing premature failures
Copperhead's high-carbon steel inner core allows the wire to stretch more than 15% to accommodate ground movement Stretches Flexibility Inflexible Copper wires inability to stretch results in frequent breaks during installation and use
Copperhead weighs 11% less than solid copper Lighter Weight Heavier Heavier product results in more difficult lifting and handling

COST
Six times the strength results in no breakage and the job being done right the first bore Inexpensive Raw Material Expensive Weaker properties result in more frequent breakage and expensive re-bores
Copperhead uses less copper resulting in more stable pricing Stable Consistent Pricing Extremely Volatile Unpredictable due to the volatile nature of a commodity market
Copperhead is lighter which results in significantly lower freight charges Lower freight cost Shipping Higher freight cost Copper weighs more than Copperhead resulting in higher freight costs
Copperhead's higher breaking strength allows the use of a single wire for directional drill applications One wire Strength Multiple wires The need to use a heavier gauge wire or multiple wires will result in higher project costs
Copperhead Reinforced Tracer Wire has virtually no after-market value None Theft Threat High Solid copper tracer wire is regularly lost to theft due to it's high scrap value

Use Copperhead steel core instead of tracer wire
Steel core and polyethylene coated Copperhead Reinforced Tracer Wire
Copperhead wire significantly outperforms conventional copper tracer wire while providing a lower total installed cost!
