Abstract
An apparatus (1) has a magnetic-head unit (17) with a housing (18) in which a magnetic head (47) is situated. The magnetic head (47) has a head face (49) in which a gap end of a transducing gap (51) extends and a first mounting surface (107) perpendicular to a gap plane (59) through the transducing gap (51). The magnetic-head unit (17) has a front section (29) of which tape guides (31, 33) form part and which is provided with a second mounting surface (75), which is positioned relative to the first mounting surface (107) of the magnetic head (47). This results in an accurately defined position of the magnetic head (47) relative to the tape guides (31, 33).
