Abstract
The present invention discloses a brake lining which, in order to reduce and eliminate noises, has a sliding metal sheet in addition to the classical lining parts such as friction lining, lining support plate and damping plate. Further, the damping plate has bores which are filled with grease. The purpose of the grease is, primarily, to lubricate the surface directed to the sliding metal sheet and the damping plate so that both surfaces can slide on each other without friction.
