Abstract
A friction element for a disk brake that includes a support plate (2) on which is fixed a friction material designed to come into contact with a first face of a brake disk. The friction element also includes an elastic element for returning the friction element to its rest position, said elastic element including a wound section of turns from which extend a first and second arm (30, 32) of different lengths designed to bear elastically against an arch of a caliper of the disk brake. The wound section of turns is fitted into an orifice made in a radial projection of the support plate.
