Lubricant and a durable diamond-like carbon (DLC) film with extra thickness that stands up to the repeated rewinding, fast forwarding and playback of professional editing.

S-AME (Super Advanced Metal Evaporation) technology has yielded an improved magnetic density. The output level has been increased by +1.2dB, resulting in a more precise and secure recording.

It offers excellent characteristics in regard to dropout, clogging, still image playback, signal output and error rate.
