Abstract
A method for achieving the planar surface of an active face for magnetic recording/reading heads. The planar surface of the active face is obtained by grinding, the active face being of the type where, before the grinding operation, the level of the material forming the gap is recessed with respect to the magnetic poles, the method comprising depositing over the recess a thin layer of non-magnetic material with a thickness at least equal to the recess of the gap. The non-magnetive thin layer may then be ground to obtain the planar surface of the active face.
