Abstract
The brake pad (10) comprises a lining (8), a lining support (11) and a spring (15) fastened at (17) to the support (11) near one edge of the support. The two free ends of this spring are shaped so that each forms a mechanism for attachment (23, 24, 25; 23', 24', 25') of the pads. These two free ends grip two adjacent bearing surfaces formed on the caliper of the disc brake equipped with this pad. The invention is used for the preassembly of pads in a disc brake incorporated in the stub axle of the vehicle wheel.
