PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an abrasion adjusting mechanism of an air disc brake for adjusting a position of a brake pad in response to pad wear by driving tappets members at both sides of the rotating brake disc by an adjuster. SOLUTION: The adjuster 34 includes a one-way clutch that permits the tappet members to be driven for adjustment in a brake apply direction and prevents adjustment in a brake release direction. The adjuster includes an adjuster input shaft, which is actuated by a brake operating shaft, and an adjuster body that supports first and second adjuster members. The one-way clutch couples the adjuster input shaft to the adjuster body such that the first adjuster member drives a first tappet assembly to adjust a first brake pad 26 on one side of the rotating brake disc, and the second adjuster member drives a second tappet assembly to independently adjust a second brake pad 26 on an opposite side of the rotating brake disc.
