Abstract
A spot-type disc brake, in particular for motor vehicles, comprises a brake housing enclosing the rim of a brake disc and further comprising brake pads arranged on both sides of the brake disc and still further comprising at least one piston-cylinder-type actuating device. In order to reduce the influence of the heat generated during braking, the brake housing is formed with at least one ventilation channel arranged close to the brake disc beside a brake pad shaft which accommodates the brake pads.
