Abstract

A gapped magnetic head comprises a first section and a second section abutted against each other at a common interface. The first section has an open-ended fluid-receiving trough at the common interface extending from one side to the other side of the magnetic head. The second section has a spaced pair of relatively narrow elongated slots at the common interface oriented in intersecting relationship with the fluid-receiving trough. The trough and both slots are filled with a material that bonds the first and second head sections together in transverse directions coinciding with their common interface.
