ABSTRACT:
A disc brake of a type having a caliper member which is guided for axial movement on a carrier member relative to a disc is provided with a pair of freely rotatable pins which extend through axially directed bores in the caliper member. A pair of coil springs are connected to the opposite ends of each pin with the opposite ends of the coil springs being anchored to the carrier member so that the caliper is freely slidable on the pins in spite of any deformation of the carrier member. The caliper member is restrained from excessive movement by a pair of retainer members overlying the opposite ends of the caliper member and which are secured to the opposite ends of the carrier member.
