ABSTRACT:
A brake pad retention spring for spot-type disc brakes for automotive vehicles is disclosed including a fastening section for securing the spring to a pad backing plate and three spring arms for engagement into a brake member such as a brake piston wherein two of the spring arms extend substantially in a circumferential direction relative to the brake disc and the third spring arm extends substantially in a radial direction. In order to permit radial pad replacement with comparatively thin pads with the housing in its mounted position, the invention provides for the radial spring arm to have a bent section extending substantially parallel to the backing plate and having an adjacent end section extending substantially radially.
