ABSTRACT:
A disc brake in which a caliper body (3) is movable relative to a support (2) in the direction of the axis of the disc so as to locate itself on the disc. For this purpose the disc brake includes guide means (6) between the caliper body (3) and the support (2) including a pin (16) fixed to the support about which the caliper body is rotatable as well as two stop shoulders (27, 28) provided in the support and engageable with the caliper body to retain it angularly between them. Dual purpose gudgeon pin bolts (39,42 and 40, 43) not only exert a gripping force on the caliper body but also cooperate with end hook portions (41) of the respective pads on opposite sides of the disc to retain the pads in the caliper body against drag from braking.
