Abstract
A mechanical wear gauge for detecting a brake liner wear and a brake disc wear of a disc brake for vehicles, in particular for utility vehicles, includes a brake liner wear detection mechanism and a brake disc wear detection mechanism. Brake liners and brake discs are subjected to a wear so that the brake liner thickness and the brake disc thickness decrease with an increasing period of use. A base member includes an arm member having a pincer leg. A first sliding member having a pincer leg is slidable relative to the base member and arm member to detect brake disc wear. A second sliding member, extending parallel to the first sliding member, is slidable relative to the base member to detect brake liner wear.
