A thermal flying height adjustment slider capable of being mounted on a
small-sized thin film magnetic head slider is provided wherein terminals
of an energizer serving as a heater prevent corrosion of pole pieces and
the number of terminals is reduced. In one embodiment, one of terminals
of the energizer serving as the heater is electrically connected to the
lower pole piece, so that a relay terminal for a heating device is used
also as the terminal for preventing the corrosion of pole pieces.
