    Abstract: A disc brake assembly for a wheel of a transportation vehicle having a brake disc and a brake caliper support for holding a brake caliper with friction brake pads. To reliably reduce corrosion of the brake disc, a bimetallic plate is provided on the disc brake assembly, wherein a sacrificial anode is secured on the bimetallic plate. The bimetallic plate adopts at least two positions, depending on the temperature of the bimetallic plate. In the first position, the sacrificial anode rests at least partially against the brake disc and, in the second position, the sacrificial anode is at a distance from the brake disc.
