ABSTRACT:
A dust shield for a disc brake according to the present disclosure has an arcuate portion positioned adjacent an annular braking surface of a disc brake rotor. The arcuate portion of the shield has a plurality of ventilation holes with an annular lip at the periphery of each hole. A plate extends across the arcuate shield portion and is spaced apart from the annular lips. The dust shield permits air to flow about the rotor for cooling purposes while reducing the contamination of the braking surfaces of the rotor by dirt particles carried by splashed road water and air.
