ABSTRACT:
An integrated suspension in a magnetic storage system having improved static attitude and stiffness control includes a rigid load member, a flexible member and a plurality of conductive leads integrally formed with the flexible member. The flexible member includes one or more pairs of tabs which protrude from the lateral edges of the flexible member. The pairs of tabs press against the conductive leads, and occupy a plane which is angled in relation to the horizontal axis of the flexible member. The conductive leads are oriented in the direction of the protruding tabs. The conductive leads are longer than the side edges of the flexible member, thereby forming a curve between the first pair of tabs and a second pair of tabs.
