ABSTRACT:
In order to provide a shim for preventing brake squeal in a disk brake, which can decrease high frequency noise (squealing phenomena) produced at braking, a rubber coated metal, in which a rubber layer is disposed on one surface of a metal plate is used and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer is disposed directly on the other surface of the metal plate, the pressure sensitive adhesive layer may include a primer layer on the other surface of the metal plate. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer of this shim structure serves as an adhesive portion to be stuck to a backplate of a disk brake pad. Since the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is disposed on the metal plate, the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is never peeled off from the rubber coated metal and its damping action (brake squeal preventing action) is maintained.
