Zusammenfassung:A device for indicating the wear of a brake lining of a disc brake, which triggers a signal when a wear limit of the brake lining is reached, includes a circlip (10) and a sensor (32) with a sensor head (34). The sensor (32) can be fastened in a bore of the brake lining and has a groove (36) that receives the circlip (10) to secure the sensor (32) on the brake lining. The groove (36) has a flattened region, and the shape of the circlip (10) is adapted to the flattened region. The circlip (10) has a region (12) which has a uniformly round curvature, and has bends (18, 20) in the direction of a centre (25) of the circlip (10) at the ends (14, 16) of this region (12). End pieces (22, 24) extend from the bends (18, 20) and have straight regions that are parallel and aligned.
