A disc brake () includes a brake disc (), a brake caliper (), two brake pads (') that are movably guided on the brake caliper (), a retainer spring (′) on each brake pad (′), a retainer bracket (-) for pre-tensioning the retainer springs (′) in relation to the respective brake pad (′), and an expander spring (′) that applies an expansion force between the brake pads (′) and diverging the brake pads (′). The ends of the expander spring (′) may bear in each case directly on one of the retainer springs (′). The disc brake () may have a loss prevention device that is operatively connected to the expander spring (′) such that the expander spring (′), in the absence of the expansion force, is held on the disc brake ().

A lining carrier () for a disc brake has a friction lining (), and the lining carrier () is arranged in a lining carrier shaft () of a brake carrier (). The lining carrier () has a front side () which faces the friction lining (), a rear side () which faces away from the friction lining (), and an edge face () which extends around a perimeter of the rear side () A region () of the edge face () that faces the lining carrier shaft () has a recess (). A reinforcing rib () is arranged centrally on the recess ().
