I guess after that 125th use they just suddenly break.

I have bags like those and they start to wear and tear after a while.

What happens if I use it 126 times?

If it breaks before the 125th use, I’ll sue for false advertisement.

So do you have to put a tally mark on it every time you use it to keep track

Imma take a stab at what that number means. Typically in consumer products, FMEA (failure mode and effects analysis) determines when a product will fail after (x) amounts of cycles. They want this number to be well below the actual failure point so it’s possible they loaded, and unloaded many of these bags in a systematic and consistent way and the average failure point was around 250 cycles so they halved it and put it on the bag. In the line of work I am in, we say max load on a given part needs to actually be 4x higher than what’s written – so when it says on the label do not exceed 1000lbs, the product actually failed at 4000lbs.

And then **HARD** stop!
Make sure to mark down when you use it 🙃
