Lexar’s now making extra durable SD memory cards from stainless steel.

Bringing more peace of mind to photographers, Lexar has debuted two new SD cards made from 316 stainless steel — an alloy that better resists corrosion — as spotted by PetaPixel.

Both the new Lexar Gold and Silver Pro SD UHS-II cards offer IP68 water and dust resistance, are much harder to bend and damage, and support read speeds of up to 1,700MB/s.
