ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A system for securing a plurality of tape pancakes 12 includes a compressible core support 24 on which the pancakes 12 can be mounted. An interior rod 26 having a head 28 fits and is received within the core support 24. A nub 34 on the inside surface 36 of the core support 24 engages a groove 38 on the outside surface 40 of the interior rod 26 to provide a threaded engagement between the interior rod 26 and the core support 24. Rotation of the interior rod 26 within the core support 24 after the head 28 contacts the end of the core support 24 provides an axial compression load onto the core support 24 to hold together the pancakes 12. This axial compression also expands the baffles which contact and tighten against the inside of the tape pancake cores and provide a radial force to secure the pancakes 12 in place.
