n: the part of a groove on the drawworks drum that changes direction. Grooves run parallel to each other, except in the angle-control section, where each groove is machined at a slight angle. This angled part of the groove causes the wire rope being spooled onto the drum to change direction so that the next wrap of rope on the drum lies in between the wraps of rope already on the drum. Also called a crossover section.
