​
Athan Pinch Rollers will improve WOW and flutter spec's on your tape machine!

This new, top quality polyurethane material assures:

• No tape slippage
• No servo instability
• No inaccurate location readings

​
Unlike aluminum assemblies, these will not wear to a smooth surface. Athan Corp's precise method of mounting the tach disk will greatly reduce flutter. Flutter can go as low as .02% @ 15 ips NAB unweighted and .018% @ 30 ips. We recommend this purchase for all ATR-100 machines. ​
