A magnetic disk apparatus includes a magnetic disk on which information is stored, a magnetic head which performs writing-in and reading-out of information, a suspension which supports the magnetic head, and a suspension supporting member having a -shaped hinge. The suspension is supported at a tip end of the -shaped hinge and an actuator for moving the magnetic head to a predetermined position on the magnetic disk is disposed so as to bridge an open portion of the -shaped hinge. The actuator is coated with a resin material.
