ABSTRACT:
A lining wear indicator for a disc brake of the type including a transversely disposed bridge bar carried on the outboard end of a push rod assembly and bearing against the inboard face of the inboard brake pad. The lining wear indicator comprises a pair of pins secured at their outboard ends to the respective radially outer ends of the bridge bar and extending axially inboard through aligned bores in the inboard web of the caliper to provide, as a function of the length of pin exposed inboard of the inboard caliper web, a measure of the remaining thickness of the brake pads.
