Abstract
A multitrack magnetic head for use with a magnetic tape in a magnetic recording and reproducing system includes at least two magnetic head tips disposed adjacent to each other and movable with respect to the magnetic tape. The head tips include a leading head tip for initial sliding contact with the magnetic tape and a trailing head tip for subsequent sliding contact with the magnetic tape. The leading head tip is made of a material whose wear resistance is greater than that of a material of which said trailing head tip is made. The head tips are held in good sliding contact with the magnetic tape for better recording and reproducing characteristics.
