ABSTRACT:
A slidably mounted disc brake caliper assembly has a hydraulic actuator in one limb on one side of the disc to be braked. One brake pad is fixed against the other caliper limb. The brake pads have ears extending on either side of the caliper bridge joining the two limbs and bent out of the backing plate plane to provide sufficient clearance for such sliding movement. The brake pad which is fixed has its ear bent for installation and, when in place, the ears are straightened to clinch against the caliper bridge. The fixed brake pad is thus held against its associated caliper limb for brake applying force transmittal. Both brake pads are made from the same pattern and are identical prior to installation.
