New Lexar Amor SDX Cards offer Steel Protection and Extreme Durability

Transcontinenta UK Ltd., Lexar's distributor for the UK and Ireland, announces the latest addition to the Lexar rugged Armor series: the Lexar Armor Gold SDXC UHS-II Card.

Designed for professional photographers, videographers, and content creators, these rugged memory cards combine extreme durability with high speed performance to meet the demands of demanding environments.

Steel-armored protection and extreme durability

The Lexar Armor Gold Pro SDXC UHS-II cards feature a stainless steel core that is 37 times stronger than standard SD cards. Designed to withstand the harshest conditions, this card is IP68 rated, making it resistant to dust, water, and drops of up to five metres. It can also withstand pressures of up to 370 Newtons, ensuring resistance to bending and shock.
A ribless, switch-free design eliminates fragile components such as the write-protection switch, reducing the risk of breakage. In addition, the laser-engraved markings, rather than traditional labels, ensure that important information remains visible even after extensive use.

Lexar Armor Gold SDXC UHS-II Card: Unstoppable Performance

The Lexar Armor Gold SDXC UHS-II card is designed for professionals who demand high-speed performance. With read speeds of up to 280MB/s and write speeds of up to 205MB/s, this card enables seamless 6K and 4K video capture with no dropped frames. With a V60 video speed rating, it is ideal for high-resolution photography, action shooting and demanding video applications.

The Lexar Armor Gold SDXC UHS-II Card will be available in capacities from 64GB to 1TB, and is temperature resistant (-25°C to 85°C), for reliability in extreme conditions. It is also optimized for fast data transfer, allowing users to pair it with a USB 3.2 reader for high-speed workflow efficiency.

Lexar Recovery Tool and Warranty

Both cards include lifetime access to the Lexar Recovery Tool, which helps recover accidentally deleted files and formatted cards. A limited lifetime warranty provides additional peace of mind, with coverage extending to 10 years in regions where lifetime warranties are not recognized, like in Germany.
