Abstract

A cylindrical hub for winding web-like or tape-like magnetic recording media of relatively great length. With a winding tension of not more than 2N/cm width of the wound magnetic recording medium, the skew measured over the total length of the wound recording medium should be not more than 5 .mu.s. The length of the wound recording medium is at least 5,000 m; the hub may consist, for example, of aluminum, steel or hard pertinax. It was found that the conditions are fulfilled by a hub in which the compression is less than 0.3% of the hub diameter.
