ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a disc-brake with a caliper (2) slidably mounted on a stationary support (1), comprising two friction pads, (4, 5) anchorably and slidably received in the stationary support (1) and capable of frictionally engaging with the opposite faces of a revolving disc (3) upon application of a brake (8), an axial column (10), integral with the stationary support (1) and slidably received in a corresponding bore (11) formed in the caliper (2), and a mechanism (20) for locking the caliper (2) in rotation about the column (10) on the stationary support (1). The mechanism (20) for locking the caliper (2) on the stationary support (1) is of the ball joint type so as to permit a disalignment of the caliper (2) with respect to the stationary support (1) upon actuation of the brake motor (8).
