ABSTRACT:
A load beam element is provided with stiffening and load lifter rails fashioned by making a cut-out or incised flap from a continuous surface of the load beam element and bending the flap out of the plane of the load beam element surface. These stiffening and load lifter rails project from the plane of the load beam surface over at least a portion of the length of the load beam element and are each oriented in length generally parallel to the nearest edge of the load beam. In addition to providing stiffening of the load beam, the rails also provide a surface for contact by a head lifter apparatus to lift and lower the HSA toward and away from an appropriate disk surface.
