    摘要: A recording tape cartridge includes: a reel including a reel hub having an outer diameter of an upper end portion thereof is smaller than that of a lower end portion thereof, and a lower flange in which plural through holes are radially formed and inclined surfaces are formed at one edge portion and the other edge portion of each of the through holes, the inclined surfaces are directed to a flange circumferential direction. An inclination angle with respect to a reel rotation axis of the inclined surface at the one edge portion, which is directed in a rotational direction of the reel, when a recording tape is wound on the reel, is larger than an inclination angle with respect to the reel rotation axis of the inclined surface of the other edge portion, which is directed in the rotational direction of the reel when the recording tape is led out of the reel.

    摘要: A magnetic recording medium of the present invention is a magnetic recording medium including a non-magnetic substrate; a non-magnetic layer that is formed on one of principal surfaces of the non-magnetic substrate and contains a non-magnetic powder, a binder, and a lubricant; and a magnetic layer that is formed on a principal surface of the non-magnetic layer opposite to the non-magnetic substrate and contains a magnetic powder and a binder. The magnetic powder has an average particle size between 10 nm and 35 nm inclusive. The lubricant is migratable to the magnetic layer and forms a lubricant layer on a surface of the magnetic layer when a pressure is applied to the magnetic layer. When spacing of the surface of the magnetic layer before and after washing the lubricant with n-hexane is measured with a TSA (Tape Spacing Analyzer), the value of the spacing after washing is 3 to 10 nm, and the value of the spacing before washing is 1 to 5 nm smaller than the value of the spacing after washing.
