Abstract

An elongated assembly, such as a belt or a sling, having a first end and a second end. The first and second ends are configured to accept a tensile load applied thereto. The elongated assembly comprises a first folded region audibly/visibly ruptureable at a first threshold loading condition and a second folded region audibly/visibly ruptureable at a second threshold loading condition, the first threshold loading condition being lower than the second threshold loading condition, to provide a physical indication in stages for a progressively increasing overload condition.
