Abstract
A flexure (2) has hook-shaped restricting pieces (18, 18), while a load beam (3) opposed to the restricting pieces (18, 18) is provided with an insert piece (11). When the flexure (2) and the load beam (3) are secured, the insert piece (11) of the load beam (3) is inserted in the restricting pieces (18, 18), so that the vertical shift of the flexure (2) is limited to within the height (H) of the restricting pieces (18). Hence, even if the magnetic head device is subjected to a strong impact, the flexure (2) does not shift in excess of the height (H), thus permitting improved shock resistance of the flexure (2).
