Figure 45A. A tightly spiralled "pig-tailed" rope; this condition
is
often the result
of
the rope
being pulled around an object that has a small diameter.
Figure 45B. Drum crushing
and spiraling in a winch line. This
is
caused by the small drums,
high loads, and multiple layer uncontrolled winding conditions frequently found on winches.
