A floating caliper type disc brake wherein a caliper having two leg portions and a bridge portion straddles a rotatable disc and a pair of opposing friction pads are slidably mounted on a carrier. An axially elongated radial opening is formed in the bridge portion of the caliper to displaceably receive therein radially outwardly projecting projections formed on respective friction pads, and a guide member is located on the outer edge of the opening to engage with and retain respective retaining portions formed on respective projections. Pad springs act between the caliper and the friction pads for biassing the friction pads radially inwardly with respect to the caliper.
