Abstract
A brake pad retainer is provided for a disc brake for a commercial vehicle. A pad retaining bracket is supported by pad retaining springs on both sides of a brake disc on a brake pad arranged in a brake caliper. The pad retaining bracket tensions a mounting opening of the brake caliper in the direction of the axis of the brake disc and is maintained at least on one side by a bolt-shaped securing element in a securing eye of the brake caliper. The brake pad retainer is designed such that the securing element is formed from an eccentric bolt having a shaft and at least one eccentric section which is positioned so that it is axially offset with respect the shaft.
