Magnetic head having an antistripping layer for preventing a magnetic layer from stripping

A magnetic head comprising:

• a substrate having a principal surface;
• a first magnetic layer formed on said substrate;
• a recording gap layer formed on said first magnetic layer;
• an insulating layer formed on said recording gap layer except for a pole tip region;
• a write coil enclosed with and insulated by said insulating layer;
• an antistripping layer formed on said insulating layer and on the pole tip region of said recording gap layer;
• and
• a second magnetic layer formed on said antistripping layer;
• wherein said antistripping layer comprises a non-magnetic layer formed on said insulating layer and on the pole tip region of said recording gap layer;
• and
• wherein said non-magnetic layer is made of a non-magnetic material of one of titanium (Ti) and tantalum (Ta).
