Abstract
Provided is a thin magnetic tape with good tracking and very little output variation in VTRs. The magnetic tape comprises a flexible support, a magnetic layer provided on one side of said flexible support and a backcoat layer provided on the reverse side of said flexible support. The magnetic tape has a stiffness equal to or less than 70 mg·mm in the width direction, an average meandering amount of a tape edge trajectory traced by each of both end in the width direction of said tape observed from the direction perpendicular to said magnetic layer surface is equal to or less than 15 &mgr;m in every end, and an intensity of a meandering component having a cycle of 20 to 200 mm is equal to or less than 30 percent of the intensity of a meandering component having a cycle of 20 to 10,000 mm.
