ABSTRACT:
A load arm assembly for a disk drive including a load beam, a head for communicating with a recording medium, and a gimbal spring interconnecting the head and the load beam. The interconnection includes a pivot having a first contact surface in point contact with a second contact surface. In accordance with the present invention, a coating is applied to at least one of the first and second contact surfaces and has a low frictional coefficient for reducing the friction between the first and second contact surfaces.
