DISC BRAKE AND MOUNTING THEREFOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A disc brake includes a frame which carries a pair of friction elements on opposite sides of a rotor. Support means fixedly secured to an axle housing cooperates with the frame to permit sliding axial movement and pivoting of the frame relative to the support means. A pair of recesses on the support means receive flange portions of the frame and form clearances at the connection between the frame and support means. Edges on the frame define guides for slidingly carrying the pair of friction elements and recesses on the friction elements fit over the guide for mounting the elements thereon. Moreover, a clearance at the connection between the elements and frame permits the elements to easily slide relative to the frame and pivot relative thereto. A spring member disposed between the support means and frame biases the frame to pivot relative to the support means to engage the friction elements with the rotor. Adjustment means between the frame and one of the friction elements rotate relative to the frame to limit retraction of the friction elements away from the rotor. The spring member includes a portion releasably engaging the adjustment means to fix the position of the friction elements relative to the rotor.
