ABSTRACT:
A guide pin for use in a tape cassette. The guide pin includes a cylinder having a tape contact section, a press fit section and a slot extending through the tape contact and press fit sections. Upon compression of the press fit section, the press fit section may be inserted into an aperture of the tape cassette. After insertion, the guide pin is released and the resiliency of the press fit section moves the press fit section against the inner walls of the aperture to secure the guide pin to the tape cassette.
