Abstract
A fixing for mounting a brake carrier of a disc brake to a mount for a disc brake and a method of assembly. The mount may be an axle mount for mounting the brake carrier on an axle of a vehicle. The fixing may include a connector for coupling the brake carrier and the mount. The connector may deform a second fixing region of the mount or brake carrier and thereby form an interference connection that restricts relative translational movement, as the brake carrier and mount are mounted together.
