Abstract

A flying-type composite magnetic head includes a slider made of a non-magnetic ceramic and having side rails extending longitudinally on both lateral sides of the head; a slit extending longitudinally in one of the side rails; and a magnetic core constituted by a pair of core pieces bonded to each other with a first glass and fixed in the slit with a second glass on both sides of the core. At least one of the opposing surfaces of the core pieces is formed with an Fe-Al-Si thin layer and the opposing surfaces of the core pieces constitute a magnetic gap of the magnetic core. Gaps formed on both sides of the magnetic core in a region exposed to an air-bearing surface of the head are filled with the second glass to improve the flatness of the air-bearing surface of the head.
