Abstract

A magnetic tape having an elongate pressure-member support for supporting a pressure member and an elongate tape-guide-element support for supporting two tape guide elements. Two abutment parts are arranged at the location of side portions of the pressure-member support and the tape-guide-element support and take up the forces exerted by the side portions when the magnetic head cooperates with the pressure member and the tape-guide elements. The pressure-member support has at least one opening in each of the two areas of its side portions which face the abutment parts. The abutment parts and/or the tape-guide-element support have projections at parts of the side portions which face the abutment parts projecting towards the facing part of said two parts which projections are arranged to correspond to the openings in the pressure-member support.
