Abstract
A disc brake for a utility vehicle is provided, having a sliding brake caliper which is fastened to a brake carrier and has a central opening above a brake disc. Two brake pads are acted on by at least one restoring device with resilient spreading elements which engage the brake pads and acts equally against the respective tightening direction. The spreading device is arranged in the central opening such that the spreading elements engage directly or indirectly outside the friction linings in the center region of the pad backing plates or at at least two contact regions of the brake pads arranged at a distance from each other with respect to the center. The contact regions each have a contact surface and a bearing surface, on which the spreading elements are movably arranged. The invention further relates to a corresponding brake pad set.
