TDK were the only people to make a C-180 cassette from 1972 to 1982 I think.

Maxell "triple play" 18u tape does jam/twist in some machines while others love it. I have used it for radio plays presented in multiple parts. If your machine gets on with it, you might find good uses for it...but like those C180 cassettes, output will be lower than double, long and standard play reels.
