Abstract
The suspension for a head assembly is capable of securely limiting the small static electricity, which cannot be limited by improving a factory environment. In the suspension of the present invention, a gimbal section is provided to a front end of the suspension and capable of holding a slider. A terminal section is provided to a base end of the suspension and electrically connected to a magnetic disk drive unit. Terminals are formed in the terminal section and connected to a cable pattern, which will be connected to the slider. A short pattern is formed in an edge part of the terminal section, and one end of the short pattern is connected to a first terminal of the terminals. The edge part of the terminal section is bent so as to elastically make the other end of the short pattern contact a second terminal of the terminals. A slit is formed in the terminal section, so that the second terminal is capable of leaving from the short pattern.
