ABSTRACT:
A magnetic head suspension assembly is fabricated with a flexure that is formed with a U-shaped finger surrounded by a cutout at the front end of the flexure. A load dimple is provided on the flexure. The flexure supports an air bearing slider that pitches and rolls relative to a disk surface and is subject to lateral displacement during operation in a disk drive. The flexure is formed with primary stabilizer sections and secondary stabilizer arms which reduce pitch and roll stiffnesses while increasing lateral stiffness, thereby maintaining a substantially constant slider flying height.
