Abstract
An air bearing magnetic head slider with leading and trailing edges and substantialy parallel sides has a pair of side rail members and a two segment center rail member. The side rail members extend on the slider from the leading edge to a position which is less than the distance between the leading edge and the trailing edge, while the center rail member extends to the trailing edge from the leading edge. This structure permits near or pseudo-contact between a transducer located on the trailing edge and a magnetic recording disk over which the slider flies.
