    Abstract: The invention relates to a brake disk comprising a friction ring (2) and a linking element (4) which are interconnected by means of a screwing arrangement (6). The screwing arrangement (6) encompasses a screw, a nut, and an intermediate element (12). Said intermediate element (12) prevents direct contact between the friction ring (2) and the linking element (4). Also provided is a sleeve element (14) that is disposed on a shaft (16) of the screw (8). A sliding block (18) is plugged onto the sleeve element (14). The intermediate element (12) at least partly encloses the sliding block such that thermal expansions acting in a radial direction can be compensated by a relative movement between the sliding block (18) and the intermediate element (12). The intermediate element also has a springy effect in an axial direction, by means of which mechanical and thermal stresses can be compensated in said axial direction.
