Abstract
A disc brake, having a brake caliper which engages over a brake disc, is held on a stationary brake carrier such that it can be displaced axially in relation to the brake disc, and in which brake pads are positioned which, during a braking operation, can be pressed against the brake disc by a brake application device. A device for visual wear detection of brake disc wear and/or brake lining wear is provided, and is configured in such that, for wear detection, a comparison element which extends in the displacement direction of the brake caliper and in an opposed manner with respect to the brake disc is fastened to the brake carrier. The comparison element is of strip-shaped configuration, with continuously planar side surfaces, and has at least one step on the edge side in the displacement direction of the brake caliper.
