The audio recording studio dispenser kit was designed to quickly cut leader, splicing and hold down tapes. The patented Butter Blade is designed to sever polyester yet safeguard fingers.

The dispenser is designed to hold tapes loaded on 5" or 7" plastic reels, 1" cores and 3" cores (up to 5'/2" in diameter).

To replenish your supply of tapes and cutter bar, see your 3M Professional Audio/Video and Specialty sales representative or contact the nearest 3M branch office. (Tape and cotton swabs not included).

Efficient storage. Ready access. Easy, inexpensive installation. Full protection without additional packaging. That's what makes 3M's Snap Cap™ Hanger System a superb way to protect your valuable Betacam or standard U-matic broadcast videocassettes.

Each cassette snaps firmly into its own protective holder, yet is easily retrieved. The heavy-duty holder locks onto a lighter, high-strength aluminum bar. Cassette and holder can be detached as a unit for complete protection during transport.

Maximize storage with 280 videocassettes within a 4' x 8' area. Cassette spines are revealed for simple, clear, uniform labeling and fast individual access. The Snap Cap™ Hanger Bar System easily and inexpensively adapts to many locations and space requirements.

3M's TapeCare™ Library Box created an archival-quality container made with a double wall of tough, environmentally responsible recyclable high-density polyethylene. And its specially designed seals prevent dust from entering the case, while the locking system prevents accidental openings in transit or storage.

• Replaces cardboard containers that shed debris and absorb moisture.

• Unique box-seal design keeps out dust and minimizes the effects of humidity.

• Designed for improved tape protection, handling and identification in tape library environments.

• Double-wall construction absorbs shocks from accidental bumps and drops.

• Cinching problems are virtually eliminated. The special hub support and frictional properties of the case let the reels rotate freely inside the box.

• Easy to use, compact carrying handle.

• Dual locking latches prevent accidental opening.

• Double hinge design lets the top and bottom halves of the box lay flat when open for easy removal and replacement.

• Features large areas on spine and front for label display.

• Interlocking stacking buttons tie several boxes together for easy, "no-slip" stacking and carrying.

. Light and easy to handle.

• Neat appearance for studio storage and organization.
