Abstract

A magnetic head comprises a gapped media-contact surface formed by a pair of cooperating sections having corresponding planar surfaces abutted to each other. The planar surface of at least one of the sections has at least one narrow elongated slot containing a solidifiable bonding fluid, preferably epoxy, drawn therein under capillary attraction, the fluid upon solidifying bonding the cooperating sections together.
