Abstract

A brake caliper of a disk brake for a utility vehicle is provided. The brake caliper includes tension braces which are arranged substantially parallel and at a distance from each other, straddling a brake disk and connecting receptacles for functional parts arranged on both sides of the brake disk. One receptacle forms a caliper back and the other receptacle forms a housing having a lever dome formed thereon. The brake caliper includes at least one replaceable service-related wear protection element fastened to areas of potential wear during in-service use of the brake caliper, such as at the lower side of the leading tension brace and at least partially around the lever dome.
