Abstract
A tape reel includes a hub in a cylindrical shape around which a magnetic tape is adapted to be wrapped, an upper flange and a lower flange respectively provided at an upper end and a lower end of the hub. The tape reel is constructed in such a manner that a distance between the upper and the lower flanges outside the outer peripheral surface of the hub is gradually decreased, as the magnetic tape is being wrapped around the hub.
