Abstract

A suspension is made of a suspension body of a stainless plate, a resin protective layer on one surface of the suspension body, a circuit pattern including read wiring and write wiring on the protective layer, and a metal layer provided on the other surface of the suspension body. In this arrangement, heat deformation of the suspension is alleviated when a write current is applied.
