A disc brake for a motor vehicle, wherein it is possible to displace the actuating piston in the housing both by hydraulic pressure activation of a hydraulic chamber formed in the housing and via a mechanical actuator, wherein the sealing ring is accommodated in an annular groove formed in the housing. Provision is made here for the annular groove to have a groove floor, which runs substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the piston, and two groove walls, which adjoin the groove floor, wherein&#x2014;as seen in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the piston&#x2014;a first groove wall is directed away from the hydraulic chamber and a second groove wall is directed towards the hydraulic chamber, wherein the first groove wall merges into the groove floor via a rounded or bevelled transition region at a varying distance from the longitudinal axis of the piston.
