A magnetic tape in which a tape thickness of the magnetic tape is 5.2 μm or less, and in an environment with a temperature of 23° C. and a relative humidity of 50%, an AlFeSil abrasion value45° of a surface of the magnetic layer measured at a tilt angle of 45° of an AlFeSil prism is 20 μm to 50 μm, a standard deviation of an AlFeSil abrasion value of the surface of the magnetic layer measured at each of tilt angles of 0°, 15°, 30°, and 45° of the AlFeSil prism is 30 μm or less, and the tilt angle of the AlFeSil prism is an angle formed by a longitudinal direction of the AlFeSil prism and a width direction of the magnetic tape.
