Abstract
A first end of a metal strip is separated into first and second tabs which are connected in series between first and second members. At least one line of interruptions extends along an intermediate portion of the strip from a point of separation between the tabs and a point proximate a second, opposite end of the strip. The second end of the strip is coiled inside the intermediate portion of the strip, so that tensile force applied to either of the members is absorbed both by tearing of the metal strip and uncoiling of the metal strip.
