A sheet-like ceramic substrate for tip parts is provided which can effectively prevent occurrence of a crack thereof. The ceramic substrate comprises a ceramic sheet 7 having first and second primary dividing grooves 2a and 2b and first and second secondary dividing grooves 3a and 3b formed at mutually corresponding locations of the opposite faces thereof. The depth of the dividing grooves 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b is comparatively small, and while the opposite ends of the first primary dividing grooves 2a and on one face of the ceramic sheet 7 extend to a pair of opposing sides 7b of the ceramic sheet 7, the opposite ends of the second primary dividing grooves 2b on the other face of the ceramic sheet 7 are spaced from the opposing sides 7b, and the opposite ends of the first and second secondary dividing grooves 3a and 3b are spaced from the other pair of opposing sides 7a of the ceramic sheet 7.
A substantially flat ceramic substrate, comprising a ceramic sheet having a substantially square shape having a pair of first opposing sides and a pair of second opposing sides, said ceramic sheet having formed on one face thereof a plurality of first primary dividing grooves which extend in parallel to said first opposing sides and have the opposite ends extending to said second opposing sides and a plurality of first secondary dividing grooves which extend in parallel to said second opposing sides and perpendicularly to said first primary dividing grooves and having the opposite ends spaced from said first opposing sides, said ceramic sheet further having formed on the other face thereof a plurality of second primary dividing grooves which extend at locations corresponding to said first primary dividing grooves and have the opposite ends spaced from said second opposing sides and a plurality of second secondary dividing grooves which extend at locations corresponding to said first secondary dividing grooves and have the opposite ends spaced from said first opposing sides.
