Abstract
In this paper the wear behaviour of the Advanced Digital Recording (ADR(TM) ) system is described. After some introduction regarding head and tape aspe cts, the native wear behaviour is discussed. To prevent wear, two wear prot ective coatings an evaluated. Finally the head to tape interface temperatur e is linked to the friction coefficient. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Sci ence Ltd.
