Conventional technology In general, a ferrite magnetic head is assembled by glass-welding a core made of a magnetic material such as Mn-Zn ferrite or Ni-Zn ferrite and a structural part made of a non-magnetic material. The material is Mn-Zn ferrite, which has a saturation magnetic flux density Bs = approximately 4500G and high magnetic permeability (thermal expansion coefficient α = 106 x 10-7/'C).

In other words, if the core material and the non-magnetic structural component have different coefficients of thermal expansion, stress will be applied to the ferrite core when glass welding them, which will not only cause deterioration of the magnetic properties, but also
Since cracks, peeling, etc. occur, which poses a serious problem when assembling the magnetic head, the material composition is selected so that the coefficients of thermal expansion of the magnetic material and the non-magnetic material match.

In addition, if there are many falling crystals or microcracks in this non-magnetic structural component material, the magnetic powder coated on the recording medium may adhere to the defects or cause chipping when the magnetic head and the recording medium run in contact with each other. The material must not be susceptible to such defects during machining, since such defects may damage the magnetic head or recording medium.

Summary of the Invention The inventor has developed a material with a thermal expansion coefficient a = 120 x 10-7/°C or higher, which has a thermal expansion coefficient equal to or higher than that of high-performance Mn-Zn ferrite with a hardness Hv = 650, and has a fine crystal structure. As a result of various studies on porcelain compositions that are dense and have very few microcracks or crystal dropouts during machining, we found that the thermal expansion coefficient of porcelain compositions depends on their crystal structure, and that NiO, MgO1TiO2, which has a NaCl type structure,
The thermal expansion coefficient at 50-500℃ is 125-140×
Focusing on the fact that it has a large value of 10-7/'C, and has dense and homogeneous hardness characteristics suitable for a ceramic composition for magnetic heads, we have developed a specific ceramic composition with a NaC1 type structural phase. Composition of NiO-MgO-TiO2
It has been found that the system is suitable for the purpose.
