ABSTRACT:
Disc brake sliding caliper retention is provided by a pair of torque bars fixedly mounted to a non-rotating member adjacent a rotating disc member. The torque bar pair constrains at least one sliding caliper from rotation with the disc when the caliper clamps down on the disc but allows axially movement relative to the rotational axis of the disc. The torque bars are mounted to the non-rotating member such that caliper forces resulting from engagement with the disc are perpendicular to the torque bars thus eliminating turning or shifting of the torque bars.
