A locking device for connectors is provided that uses a threaded seal latch application using a ferrule. A method for making the magnetic head device includes the steps of applying the conductive resin at least onto a portion of an insulating layer formed on the joint surface of the support, bonding the slider to the joint surface of the support with the conductive resin, and causing dielectric breakdown in the insulating layer lying under the conductive resin before step at the latest. Then, the second impurity having the first conductivity type is ion-implanted into the silicon substrate 101, and then a flash lamp annealing is conducted to form a n-type sourcedrain region 109. Legs mounted to the underside of a floor assembly keep the latter at a spaced apart relationship with respect to a supporting surface. The hydrogel blend is capable of containing a large amount of water, has good tack, good adhesion, and can be utilized as an application vehicle having a backing thereon as well as containing various substances such as personal care compounds, pharmaceuticals, active ingredients, and the like. The inserting device includes a magazine for tufting straps, a needle with a tip receptacle for receiving and transferring a clip through the mattress, a transfer element, with a seat for receiving the clip, and a pusher, movable transversely to the needle for engaging the clip and inserting the clip in the tip receptacle.
