Disc type brake comprises a brake disc with pivot centre, hold-down device and pressure foot, completed in a form of plate spring. Hold-down device is equipped with a wedge, which in installed position goes through an open end hole in the pressure foot. In installed position the edge outstands an open end hole in the axial direction of a brake disc. Outstanding part of a brake disc limits the reverse movement of one or both spring clutches. The invention allows enhancement of the brake technical characteristics due to improvements, resulting in secure passage of a wedge through an open end hole even in extreme conditions with preservation of possible displacement of the hold-down device in tangential direction of the brake disc and preservation of the device manoeuvrability in the axial direction of a brake disc.
