Abstract
According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a first adhesive attaching a slider to a suspension. A flexure of the suspension includes an outer surface of a metal plate and an insulator. The insulator surrounds the first adhesive. The insulator includes two first walls, a second wall, and a third wall. The first walls extend closer to each other toward a axis of a carriage. The second wall is spaced apart from the first walls and further away from the axis than the first walls. The third wall is located at a center of the insulator in a circumferential direction and is located between the first walls and the second wall. The third wall is shorter than the second wall. The distance between the second wall and the third wall is shorter than a distance between the first walls and the third wall.
