A suspension including a load beam, a flex gimbal, and a displacement
limiter. The load beam includes a distal end having a dimple extending
downwardly therefrom and an aperture. The flex gimbal includes a base
dielectric layer and a plurality of electrical conductors coupled to the
dielectric layer. The dielectric layer includes a top side that is
attached to a bottom side load beam at a first location. The displacement
limiter is attached to the dielectric layer and includes a limiter member
having a first portion extending through the aperture of the load beam
and a second portion extending over a top surface of the load beam.
Displacement of the flex gimbal relative to the load beam is limited by
the second limiter portion.
