Summary:A disc brake for a utility vehicle includes an application device, which is positioned in a receiving space of a brake caliper having a caliper housing and a lever dome arranged thereon. The application device has a pivotable brake lever, which is provided with at least one eccentric portion and a lever arm which adjoins the latter, the lever extending approximately parallel to the axis of rotation of the brake disc and projecting into the lever dome. Two brake plungers are mounted axially adjustably in a bridge and, during braking, lie against a brake pad. A readjustment device compensates for a wear-induced change in an air gap. A synchronizing device is connected functionally to the brake plungers and has a traction mechanism drive. The traction mechanism drive is arranged outside the lever dome, wherein strands of the traction mechanism drive are guided around a partial region of the lever dome.
