New strengthened binder gives metal tape greater durability under the stress of repeated use -- important for cart machines and repeated editing. Dropouts are prevented by the stronger binder, sophisticated new quality control and the anti-static lid. Alumina-silica metal particle coating keeps retentivity and coercivity high after years of storage.
Newly applied lubricants extend head life, and controlled surface roughness minimizes modulation noise for a higher C/N ratio.
