Plus, the Travan™ TR-3 Minicartridge offers all the standard features you've come to rely on from quality 3M quarter-inch cartridge tapes:

Black Watch™ backcoated tape helps provide data protection against static, wound-in debris, and instantaneous speed variations (ISV).
Patented NEP (No End Play) hub design minimizes vertical tape movement which improves tracking and reduces system errors.
Patented Dura-Stat™ drive roller dissipates static and extends cartridge life.
One-piece tape guide improves tracking and read/write performance.
Track repeatability of 0.0005" ensures more accurate recording -- virtually eliminating read/write errors caused by poor tracking.
Thermally stable cover and baseplate design reduces warpage and increases reliability at higher speeds and densities.
Stippled baseplate design maintains cartridge flatness, providing better tracking with reduced errors.
Surface textured anti-static drive belt creates better traction on the tape pack for uniform tape tension, providing improved high-speed/high-density recording.
