Abstract
A disc brake assembly includes a torque member (12) with a pair of arms (18, 20) supporting a caliper assembly (24). The pair of arms and caliper assembly define recesses (34, 36) and the recesses form slots (50, 52) which receive a friction element (32). The friction element (32) extends into the recesses (34, 36) to connect with and transmit torque to the caliper assembly (24). The friction element 32 includes projections (62, 64) in abutting relation with the caliper assembly (24).
