Abstract
In one embodiment, a computer program product for determining a wrap angle includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se. The program instructions are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method that includes receiving, by the processor, a measurement of a distance from an edge to a transducer, receiving, by the processor, a predefined height of tenting of a magnetic recording tape above the transducer, and determining, by the processor, a wrap angle for inducing tenting of the magnetic recording tape above the transducer at the predefined height when the magnetic recording tape passes over the edge in a direction of tape travel thereacross.
