Description
Overview:
The Drain Tracing Dye Red 200g is a water‐soluble, non‐toxic powder dye for tracking water movement in drains, pipes, gullies, and open channels. The vivid red colour provides strong contrast in clear water, making it easier to spot flow direction, confirm connections, and identify leaks or misconnections. Suitable for most plumbing and drainage materials, including PVC, clay, cast iron, copper, HDPE, and concrete channels, it supports work on residential, commercial, and industrial sites. The 200 g tub offers enough dye for multiple tests, making it practical for plumbers, groundworkers, facilities teams, and DIY users. Simple to mix and apply, it disperses quickly without specialist equipment. Manufacturer Part Number: DR79191.
