Abstract
A magnetic-tape cassette having two reel hubs mounted for rotation in major walls, and a length of magnetic tape which is unwound from and taken up by the reel hubs, and guided along a first long side wall having apertures for a magnetic head. For supporting the edges of the tape in directions parallel to the axes of the reel hubs, at least two tape guides each have two height guides which, near that side of the tape guide which faces the first long side wall, converge from the direction of the first long side wall towards the adjacent reel. During operation, a plane tangent to the end portion of a height guide substantially coincides with a plane tangent to the inner side of the flange of the adjacent reel hub.
