Abstract

Brake linings for a disk brake with a brake disk, a brake caliper, and brake linings. The brake caliper features a lining well for the brake linings. The brake linings feature at least one friction lining and further feature on the side of the brake caliper at least one lip, which is disposed on the brake lining such that it extends beyond the friction face of the friction lining at the face of the brake disk, so that when installed it covers a gap formed between the brake disk and the friction face to protect it from infiltration of dirt from outside.
