ABSTRACT:
To facilitate eventual confirmation that an elongate article secured within an end fitting was fully inserted into the end fitting during assembly, the outer surface of the elongate article is provided with a two-part marking prior to assembly with the end fitting. The two-part marking is applied to the elongate article at a predetermined axial position from the end of the article such that in the case of a satisfactory assembly, in which for example the article is fully inserted in the end fitting, one part of the marking is exposed and another part is concealed. The exposed part serves to confirm that the article was marked prior to assembly with the end fitting and at least partial concealment of the other part of the marking confirms that the article extends sufficiently within the end fitting. The invention is especially suitable for confirming that in a hose assembly the end of a hose fully extends within the end fitting.
