A generally elongated clamping piece is received within the anchor groove and has a predetermined width as measured circumferentially of the reel hub. A tape medium includes a length of magnetic recording tape having opposite ends, and a leader tape connected with each of the opposite ends of the length of magnetic recording tape by of a splicing tape of a predetermined length. One end of the leader tape remote from the length of magnetic recording tape is received within the reel hub and anchored to the reel hub with the clamping piece snapped into the anchor groove. The splicing tape is, when the tape medium is wound around the reel hub, positioned immediately radially outwardly of and encompassing the predetermined width of the clamping piece.
