To realize a structure hardly allowing a pad clip 24 temporarily fixed to a pad 4A to come off, and, moreover, improving handling properties of the pad 4A to which the pad clip 24 is temporarily fixed.
The pad clip 24 is made of an elastic plate, and has a substrate section 27 and a pair of elastic plate sections 28a and 28b formed by bending the substrate 27 at both ends in the same direction. The clip 24 is provided with an elastic force directed in the direction of expanding the gap between the elastic plate sections 28a and 28b. The plate sections 28a and 28b are forced to elastically reduce the gap between them, and are inserted, in this condition, in the inside of guide recesses 22 formed in a pressure plate 6A constituting the pad 4A. Both the elastic plate sections 28a and 28 are elastically pressed against the inside of the guide recesses 22 and 22, and thus, the pad clip 24 is installed on the pressure plate 6A.
