I was surprised to find something like this in stock!

Product worked well! I have hundreds of audio cassettes that I'm copying to digital formats and some of them have broken lead tapes. With this product they could be repaired and transferred.

Pros
  • Cut in Europe to the international audio cassette width standard
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Slightly wider than the cassette

Works well but part of the tape is slightly wider than the cassette itself so be careful. Take your time and be precise with this ribbon, especially when making loops like I did. Sometimes you only have to cut off the smallest piece when gluing the sides, no matter how precise you glue.

Pros
  • For manual use during repairs
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Cassette splicing tape Fixing splicing tape too wide

The width of this tape is 0.148 inch as stated on the packaging which is the full width of the tape. To use with my splicing block, the tape needs to be .125" wide, as do the splicing tabs that come with the splicing block. To successfully use this tape, I had to place the strip on a cutting board and, while observing through a 2.5x magnifying glass, use a single-edged blade to cut off the extra 0.023 inch. aligned with the locked splice slot and lowered through the slot onto the tape.

Pros
  • Brand new, fresh stock, made in 2021! (No Legacy)
Cons
  • Negative Reprint

Slightly wider than the cassette

It works fine but the parts of the tape are just tiny bumps wider than the cassette itself so be careful. Take your time and be precise with this ribbon, especially when making loops like I did. Sometimes you only have to cut off the smallest piece when gluing the sides, no matter how precise you glue.

Pros
  • Cut in Europe according to the International Audio Cassette Width Standard
Cons
  • Crumpled
