Tape 1: Strain of a beige tape (reference [10]) until breakage. Maximum elongation is 33–37%. requiring 16 to 18 kg of strength to breakage. Tape 2: Strain of a red tape (reference [9]) until breakage. Maximum elongation is 37–45%. requiring 16 to 17 kg of strength to breakage. Tape 3: Strain of a blue tape (reference [11]) until breakage. Maximum elongation is 60–63%. requiring 21 to 22 kg of strength to breakage. Tape 4: Strain of a black tape (reference [4]) until breakage. Maximum elongation is 94–99%. requiring 23 to 24 kg of strength to breakage. The blue point marks the 30% elongation of each tape
