Patent Number: 12448257 
Title: Drum Spooling System with Load-Bearing Line Protective Wrap 
Abstract: A drum spooling system with a line protective material or wrap that can be wound and unwound with a load-bearing line, such as a wire rope, on a load drum to form a superposed arrangement of layers of the load-bearing line and protective material around the load drum, which advantageously reduces the pressure on the drum, radial space and/or drum size requirements, and damage to the wire rope resulting from the spooling and unspooling process, among other things.
