ABSTRACT:
A recording and/or reproducing device (1) includes at least one tape guide (10) having a guide wall (13) and guide flanges (14, 15) projecting beyond the guide wall (13). The guide wall and guide flanges are coated with a coating (21) of zirconium nitride or titanium nitride. This results in the tape guide having a high wear resistance and a high resistance to the deposition of material abraded from the tape.
