Abstract

A thin-film magnetic head has a slider formed of nonmagnetic polycrystalline Mn--Zn ferrite containing from 0.02 to 7 wt % of at least one member selected from the group consisting of CaO, MgO, ZrO.sub.2, SnO.sub.2, Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, SrO and NiO. Concave-convex surface having height difference is given to air bearings on a floatation surface side of the slider so that the convex portions occupy the area percentage in a range of from 20 to 80%.
