Lexar Announces World’s First Stainless-Steel SD Cards

Lexar has launched its new ARMOR GOLD and ARMOR SILVER PRO UHS-II SD Cards in India, introducing the world’s first stainless-steel SD cards. Designed for photographers and content creators, these cards are built to withstand challenging conditions. They are IP68-rated, offering resistance to dust, water, and drops from up to 5 meters.

Both cards support Video Speed Class 60 (V60) and read speeds up to 280MB/s. GOLD offers write speeds up to 210MB/s and the SILVER PRO up to 160MB/s. Their rib less design and absence of a write-protection switch also seeks to improve durability.

Tested for thermal, shock, and static resistance, the cards comply with SD Association (SDA) thickness standards to ensure compatibility with most professional cameras. Lexar also includes its Recovery Tool for file restoration.

Available at major retail and online platforms, prices for the SILVER PRO start at ₹7,750 (128GB) and ₹12,250 (256GB), while the GOLD version is priced at ₹9,250 (128GB) and ₹16,250 (256GB).
