Maxell D5 48

"High output/Low noise. Newly developed 0.1µm-diameter fine Ceramic Armor Metal Particles enhance the tape’s high magnetic energy and new calendering technology ensures tape surface smoothness for increased short-wavelength output (2dB higher than Maxell D-3) and decreased noise. High-density recording demanded for D-5 format is thereby attained. Fine Head Contact-Thin, highly rigid, PEN (Polyethylene Naphthalate) and is used as base film material. Even with thin tape that is just 11µm thick, superb head-to-tape contact and durability are attained, offering the same reliability as tape of standard thickness. Superior Tape Winding-SW (Smooth Winding) reel with radial grooves molded on the lower reel flanges, uniform thickness coating technology and high-precision slitter technology for smooth and even tape edges minimize uneven tape winding."
