ABSTRACT:
A clip system for mounting a magnetic head on a support includes a support having at least one upwardly extending flange for holding the head immoveable in at least one direction along a first dimension. The head has at least one index cavity in its upfacing surface. A clip is positioned with one leg pressing down on the top of the head and another positioned against the bottom of the support to hold the head immoveable against the support along a second dimension perpendicular to the first dimension. The clip is fixed in a suitable manner to the support and has at least one inward protrusion or tang sized to fit tightly in each of the index cavities. The cavities and tangs in conjunction with the fixing of the clip to the support, cooperate to prevent relative movement between the support and the head in a third dimension perpendicular to the first and second dimensions and further cooperate to effect registration of the head along the third dimension when the clip is in its engaged position with the head and the support.
