Detectable Mule Pull Tape 1/2″, 5/8″, 3/4″ Customized Length

Our Detectable Mule Pull Tape is a premium, high-strength solution designed for pulling and locating cables in conduit systems. Made in China from 100% woven polyester, this pull tape features a 22-gauge copper-coated conductor for traceability and detection. Engineered for maximum durability and minimal friction, it’s the trusted choice of utility, electrical, and communications contractors for underground and overhead cable installations.

Whether you’re working in telecom, electrical, or fiber optic deployments, this detectable pull tape ensures superior performance, safety, and efficiency. Available in 1/2″, 5/8″, and 3/4″ widths with customized lengths, it’s coiled on heavy-duty plastic reels for fast and easy dispensing.

What is Detectable Mule Pull Tape?

Detectable Mule Pull Tape is a flat, woven polyester tape designed for pulling cable through conduits while also providing locating capability. Unlike standard pull ropes or fish tapes, this specialized product includes a built-in metallic conductor, allowing it to be located with standard cable locators or tone generators.

It combines the advantages of strength, durability, and traceability—making it ideal for both short runs and long pulls in utility ductwork.

Key Features of Our Detectable Mule Pull Tape

• 100% Woven Polyester Construction
  Delivers high tensile strength with very low stretch, ensuring reliable and consistent performance in tough pulling jobs.
• 22-Gauge Copper-Coated Steel Conductor
  Built-in trace wire enables the tape to be located using standard locating equipment, helping reduce excavation damage and improving installation accuracy.
• Pre-Lubricated Design
  Comes pre-treated with lubricant to reduce friction, making it easier to pull through tight conduit bends without damaging duct walls or cable jackets.
• Sequential Foot Markings
  Clearly labeled with accurate, easy-to-read markings every foot, enabling technicians to measure pull distance precisely and manage installations efficiently.
• Heavy-Duty Plastic Reels
  Supplied on durable plastic reels for tangle-free storage and smooth deployment, reducing setup and labor time in the field.
• Low Friction Coefficient
  Helps prevent duct cutting or tearing of cable jackets during high-tension pulls.
• Made in China
  Manufactured under strict quality standards for domestic utility, telecom, and electrical applications.

Benefits of Using Detectable Mule Pull Tape

Dual Functionality

Combines pulling strength with detectability, reducing the need for separate pulling lines and tracer wires. Ideal for applications where long-term traceability of buried conduit or cable routes is required.

High Strength, Low Stretch

Its woven polyester structure gives it the tensile strength needed for heavy cable pulls, while maintaining minimal stretch for better control and safety during installations.

Accurate Distance Monitoring

Sequential markings every foot simplify cable length estimation, reduce waste, and streamline inventory and job site documentation.

Versatile Applications

Used in:

• Telecommunications infrastructure
• Electrical conduit runs
• Fiber optic deployments
• Underground utility installations
• Municipal and DOT projects
