Abstract

See full text

A pressure plate for a disc brake pad is provided with ears having increased thickness to ensure retention of the pad in the brake housing when the friction material is worn. The increased thickness is obtained by linearly displacing one or more sections of the ears perpendicular to the plate by stamping, and preferably by fine blanking. This process optimizes the life of the stamping tools and does not require subsequent machining.
