Many open reel tapes are approaching $100 in value, so why not apply a sensing tab that is designed for the use and will not fall off and goo up your tape like the cheap faux aluminum hobby tape sold by others?  These professional Studio Grade™ tabs are real aluminum for the best performance, and even the adhesive is electrically conductive allowing overlapping the ends if needed, and this these are the only tabs made with this feature!

TME® Professional open reel deck sensing foil is now custom made in USA specifically for open reel tape sensing to TME® specifications. It is real, highly conductive aluminum foil with a non-oozing aerospace electrically conductive adhesive.

Sensing foil is used on any audio tape deck using foil for auto reverse and/or auto stop sensing like some TEAC® models and program change on 8-track tape decks.

The foil has release backing release media much wider than the foil to make it easy to remove the foil tab with a media blade or Xacto knife.  No more searching for the end of the roll!   If you have an application where you need a longer foil tab than the tabs are cut to, simply overlap them and the proprietary electrically conductive adhesive will close the circuit.

Note: When re-joining the ends of an 8-Track tape repair, make sure you rub off the tape ends to remove any lubricant that may be on the tape.  This lubricant is used to keep the tapes from binding in the cartridge.
