Resist the temptation to cover up the slots with tape. The adhesive
could bleed out , polluting the magnetic tape itself.

I agree with Steve, using enough leader should solve this, otherwise
you are
back to the 10.5 reels.  I realise this seems like a waste for small
reels but
if you feel safer with this then it is your only alternative.  That
means you
will need to purchase 10.5 acid free boxes also.

Hope this helps

Cheers
Marie
