Abstract
A disk-brake pad device includes a carbon-carbon lining pad. The disk-brake pad device attaches the pad to the caliper. At least one pad-positioning surface of the caliper has merging therefrom at least one pad-actuating piston. A first plate element (1) of heat-insulating material, called a screen element, is located against the positioning surface. At least one second element (2) of heat-insulating material, called a spacer element, of adequate thickness, having reduced frontal contacts is located against the first element (1). A carbon-carbon lining pad (3) of high-temperature friction material is located against the second element (2). The first element (1) and/or the second element (2) acts to retain the lining pad (3) and to fix the first element and/or the second element to the caliper.
