The air gap in a magnetic circuit is important because it increases the reluctance of the circuit, which in turn influences the magnetic flux and magnetic field strength. By controlling the size of the air gap, we can control the level of magnetic flux and magnetic force produced in the circuit. This can be useful in applications where precise control over magnetic properties is required.
Specific magnetic loading is ratio average flux air gap and flux path of air gap:
0.55 gap (+/-0.04; which I implore you to try to gauge on a disk gap tool...)
Mainly air gap is necessary in magnetic circuit for two necessary reasons: 1. to prevent saturation 2. to allow an object to move in the magnetic field
The air gap of a magnet refers to the space between the magnet poles where the magnetic field is generated. It represents the distance over which the magnetic field lines travel and influence external objects. The air gap plays a critical role in determining the strength and reach of the magnetic field produced by the magnet.
A read gap, a write gap, and two edge erase gaps to produce clean tracks when writing. In early heads all gaps used magnetic coils, most modern ones use a different technology (e.g. magneto resistive) on the read head.

An air gap in the magnetic path of a transformer increases the reluctance of the magnetic circuit, reducing the magnetic flux and efficiency of the transformer. This can lead to increased losses, lower power transfer efficiency, and potentially impact the regulation of the transformer. It is generally preferred to have a low-reluctance magnetic path for optimal transformer performance.
No the dealership can not be sued if they did not offer GAP insurance. The dealership is not required to offer GAP insurance.
Lamination reduces eddy current losses in the core material, allowing for a more efficient transfer of magnetic flux across the air gap. This results in an increase in the magneto-motive force across the air gap due to the reduced energy losses in the magnetic circuit.
To read, there are very small electric coils that sense the magnetic polarization; these coils are mounted on arms which pivot and move across and very close to the surface of the disk. (see the image link under Sources... below) These coils read the polarization which represents the 1's and 0's of the binary information stored on the magnetic disk. The write mechanisms make use of the electricity flowing through a coil in the write head that produces a magnetic field. Electrical pulses are sent to the write head, with different patterns of positive and negative currents. The current in the coil of the write head induces a magnetic field across the gap between the head and the magnetic disk platter, which in turn magnetizes a small area on the recording medium. The Read/Write head assembly works to read and write using basically the same technology, early units used the same hardware for both, modern units can have slightly different configurations of the microscopic gaps between coils and magnets etc. for optimum performance.
