Abstract
The present invention relates to a brake pad for rail vehicles, including at least two friction material blocks and at least one holding device.

The connection is constructed such that the individual friction material blocks may be displaced with respect to one another. The present invention also relates to a rail vehicle brake including at least one brake shoe, a friction material block holding device, a power unit having a carrier body and a connection device connecting the power unit to the at least one brake shoe.
