Abstract
In a composite disc for heavy-vehicle disc brakes, an annular braking band comprises at least two portions which are divided along at least one axial separation plane defining, on these portions, respective pairs of flat surfaces which can be arranged face to face in pairs. Radially-oriented, calibrated, semicylindrical cavities are formed in the flat coupling surfaces in order to define cylindrical seats for housing corresponding calibrated locating pins after the assembly of the portions of the band. This solution ensures precise axial alignment between the braking surfaces of the portions of the band.
