Abstract: A disc brake for a commercial vehicle is provided. The disc brake includes a brake caliper, preferably in the form of a sliding caliper, straddling a brake disc, being arranged on a fixed backing plate, and having an application device for applying the brake. The disk brake also includes two brake pads, each having a pad carrier and an affixed friction pad, and each being inserted into a pad shaft of the backing plate. The brake caliper has a central caliper opening over the disc brake. A hold-down bar is provided, designed in such a way that, of the two brake pads, it radially secures only the reaction-side brake pad in its lining shaft in the backing plate. The hold-down bar is held on the brake caliper by its end facing away from the brake pad. Additionally, the application-side brake pad is radially interlockingly secured in its pad shaft in the backing plate.

Abstract: A disc brake for a utility vehicle, with a brake caliper which overlaps a brake disc, is preferably designed as a sliding caliper, is fastened to a positionally fixed brake carrier and has a central caliper opening above the brake disc, with an application device for applying the brake, and with two brake pads which are insertable through the caliper opening and each have a pad carrier and a friction pad fastened thereto, of which brake pads the one brake pad, as an application-side brake pad, can be pressed against the brake disc on the one side of the brake disc by the application device, and the other, as a reaction-side brake pad, is arranged on the opposite side of the brake disc, is distinguished in that a holding-down clamp is provided which is designed in such a manner that it radially secures only one of the two brake pads in the pad slot.
