ABSTRACT:
The support for the outboard disc brake lining is a section of the caliper, and no shoe is used. The lining has a boss which fits into a recess formed in the caliper housing. The boss has sufficient shear area to transmit brake torque to the caliper. Center holes in the lining provide a location for a clip to be installed through the outboard caliper section. The clip keeps the lining away from the disc in the rest position and may also function as a lining wear sensor. The results include lighter weight and more usable lining.
