PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a head suspension for a disk device, a suspension capable of preventing breaking of a gimbal by impact, failure of a disk by head slapping, and destruction of sliders by mutual sticking or collision. SOLUTION: A suspension 11 is provided with a limiter 17 for limiting the operating range of a load beam 14 which is formed by extending a part of a base 12 for attaching the suspension. As a result, displacement of a load beam is limited by the head suspension for a disk device; hence, a gimbal is prevented from coming into contact with the disk cartridge, even if a strong inertia force is imparted to the suspension by impact or the like, so that the gimbal is protected from destruction.
