Abstract
A magnetic tape wind-up method comprises the steps of winding up a magnetic tape around a hub, which is incorporated in a cassette case, while the magnetic tape is being moved and is in contact with a contact member provided in the cassette case. The magnetic tape is wound up while a gas is being blown against the contact member or against a portion of the magnetic tape, which portion is present in the vicinity of the contact member, in such a way that the gas flows between the contact member and the magnetic tape.
