ABSTRACT:
A wear detector in a brake pad is disclosed including a projection on the face of the detector extending substantially perpendicular thereto. A U-shaped signal wire is bent around the projection and spaced apart therefrom so that, when the wire is rendered discontinuous by abrasion of the brake pad, the detector body is not damaged and a signal is activated, thereby indicating that a replacement of the brake pad is required.
