ABSTRACT:
A mounting assembly for a disc brake pad which has a first end portion provided with a finger engaged with a reaction surface in a slot of a reaction block to partially restrain the disc brake pad when it is applied against a rotor. The reaction surface is machined at an angle or in an arc to counterbalance the couple which forces the leading end of the disc brake pad inwardly against the rotor. The disc brake pad has a substantially unrestrained second end portion which is cantilevered from the first end portion. Braking forces are reacted virtually exclusively against the reaction block which is located externally of and separated from the disc brake caliper assembly.
