TraceKlip™

 

 

 

    DOT is now requiring positive separation between plastic gas piping and metallic 

       tracer wire.¹ Wrapping around or taping to pipe is no longer permitted but,
       HIT-KIT, LLC  has the solution !!!! We are pleased to announce our newest gas
       industry product,TraceKlip™, to solve this dilemma.
 
      TraceKlip™ will reduce the risk of both lightening strike damage, and especially
       third party damage due to alleged or actual missed locates. This is accomplished
       by installing TraceKlip™ vertically on the pipe providing superior locate accuracy.
        
  •TraceKlip™ easily clips onto pipe during original installation or repairs, positioning
      tracer wire a minimum of 6 inches above the pipe.
 
  •TraceKlip™ has greater than 75% circumferential pipe fit and can will not be
      displaced during trench installation and backfilling procedures.
 
     TraceKlip™ will not break under freezing temperatures and can be installed using
      our unique "press-open" design, or our easy "stab-fit" during warmer periods.
 
      TraceKlip™ is compatible with all plastic piping products including gas, water,
       wastewater, communications and can be molded in any color desired.
 
      TraceKlip™ quantity order pricing is available upon request.
