Abstract of the Disclosure A cartridge including a fixed hub having a central opening and a slot communicating with the opening, and an endless length of magnetic tape having a major portion coiled about the hub and a minor portion extending from the innermost wrap of the coil, through the slot and around the side surface of the coil to the coil's outermost wrap. Means on the housing defining a tape path for the minor tape portion include a spring biased movable guide pin that provides a desired low, predetermined tension in the outermost wrap of the coil, which in turn produces a relatively high, generally uniform tension in tape being pulled from the coil through the slot. A portion of the hub can be moved radially to adjust the length of the minor tape portion, and a lock assembly is provided for restricting movement of tape in the coil during shipping.
