Abstract
A disc brake pad comprises a base plate, a friction pad, a first fin, and a second fin. The base plate includes a first surface. The friction pad is provided on the first surface. The first fin extends along a first edge of the base plate. The first fin includes a first fin end and protrudes from the base plate to the first fin end in a first direction. The first fin has a first distance defined between the first surface and the first fin end in the first direction. The second fin includes a second fin end and protrudes from the base plate to the second fin end in the first direction. The second fin has a second distance defined between the first surface and the second fin end in the first direction. The second distance is longer than the first distance.
