Abstract
A reel strip retention system to releasably attach a reel strip onto a reel basket using one or more tabs on the reel strip that engage with corresponding one or more slots positioned around an edge of the reel basket. The reel strip includes a pair of indents positioned adjacent a first end of the reel strip. The reel strip includes an adhesive layer positioned at either the first end or at the opposite second end of the reel strip. The reel basket includes a pair of detents positioned on the edge of the reel basket. The detents of the reel basket engage with the indents of the reel tape to attach the reel strip to the reel cage in a reliable, precise, and consistent manner and ensuring that the reel strip is in a correct starting position on the reel basket. As the reel strip is wound around the reel basket, the one or more tabs are inserted into the corresponding one or more slots on the reel basket. Once the reel strip is wrapped fully around the reel basket, the free second end of the reel strip and first end of the reel strip are pressed together and secured with the adhesive strip.
