Abstract

A brake lining for a disc brake of a road vehicle has a blade-type retaining spring for the lining. At least two peripheral lining springs are situated on each brake lining, adjacent to the retaining spring, and exert a compressive force on at least some sections of the periphery of the lining carrier. The springs are configured in such a way that they respectively cover an edge region of the brake lining carrier, with the latter having at least two corner regions.
