Abstract
A pad axle for a brake caliper comprises an axle body and a support body. The axle body includes a first mounting part and a second mounting part and extends along a longitudinal axis between the first mounting part and the second mounting part. Both of the first mounting part and the second mounting part are configured to be coupled to a caliper body of the brake caliper. The support body is a different member from the axle body and is attached to the axle body to movably support a brake pad of the brake caliper relative to the caliper body. The support body is provided between the first mounting part and the second mounting part of the axle body. The support body is made of a non-metallic material.
