Abstract

The magnetic tape has a timing base servo pattern on the magnetic layer, wherein the centerline average surface roughness Ra on the surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 1.8 nm, the magnetic layer contains a fatty acid ester, the full width at half maximum of spacing distribution measured by optical interferometry on the surface of the magnetic layer before and after vacuum heating the magnetic tape is greater than 0 nm but less than or equal to 7.0 nm, the difference of spacing measured by optical interferometry on the surface of the magnetic layer after and before vacuum heating the magnetic tape is greater than 0 nm but less than or equal to 8.0 nm.
