Wire Performance
Installation

Conventional tracer wire underperforms, despite being overpriced.

Make the switch to Copperhead.

The steel core and polyethylene coating of Copperhead Reinforced Tracer Wire significantly outperforms conventional copper tracer wire while providing a lower total installed cost. Copperhead Reinforced Tracer Wire represents a revolutionary breakthrough for the utility industry and offers substantial savings in material, shipping and labor. Consider the comparisons below!

Copperhead
vs.
 Solid Copper Wire
PERFORMANCE
Superior impact strength and twice the tensile break strength of solid copper wire 2x strong Strength 2x weak Weaker properties result in more frequent breakage due to earth, rocks, tools and installation
Copperhead weighs 11% less than solid copper Lighter Weight Heavier Heavier product results in more difficult lifting and handling
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 Directional Drill Wire has 6 times the strength of soft drawn solid copper wire 6x strong Directional Drill Wire 6x weak Multiple strands of copper wire are required for directional drill applications

COST
Steel core results in significant savings over solid copper Inexpensive Raw Material Expensive Copper is an expensive commodity
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
