Abstract
The invention is directed to a brake band for bringing the saw chain of a chain saw to standstill. Chain saws include safety devices which bring the saw chain to standstill by applying a brake band to a brake drum. These safety devices effect numerous applications of the brake band to the brake drum so that the brake drum wears rapidly and has only a short service life. The brake band of the invention has a friction side which is provided with a layer made of an oxide ceramic which increases the service life for very short braking times even when oil penetrates the region between the brake band and the brake drum.
