ABSTRACT:
A single reel data tape cartridge includes a base and a cover. The cover includes a rear wall, two opposing side walls, a front wall, and an upper wall connecting the rear, front, and side walls. The upper wall has an upper surface and a lower surface. The upper surface has a substantially rectangular recessed portion which is adapted to receive an identifying label and to receive ribs on the base of an adjacent cartridge when a plurality of cartridges are stacked. The upper wall is formed with a stepped wall thickness such that the portion of the lower surface corresponding in location to the recessed portion has an increased stepped portion. The depth of the recessed portion varies and is greater adjacent its edges.
