Abstract: For a vehicle disc brake, a piston-side first friction pad is provided with at least one protrusion on a piston-contacting section that excludes the central axis line of the piston and the piston is provided with an engagement hole capable of engaging with the protrusion. Symmetric with the piston-side first friction pad with a brake disc therebetween, a reaction pawl-side second friction pad is provided with a protrusion. As a result, it is possible to provide a vehicle disc brake in which the first friction pad and the second friction pad are both made to have a protrusion, reducing the possibility of incorrect assembly, and the friction pads themselves are made to be used in common, facilitating product management.
