Anyone had a winch drum failure?

We're making a new winch drum. The flanges on our drum bent out a little when moving from steel to Spectra line. I'd like to know the dimensions and structure of any drums/flanges that have failed, or shown signs of failing, and with what length and type of line. Please pass this on to anyone who has details on that. Bret Scott Fletcher at Carolina Soaring is an expert on tis topic. UH
