A disc brake for vehicles, in particular to a pneumatically actuated disc brake for utility vehicles, is provided. The disc brake includes a brake caliper and an application device for applying the brake. The application device has a first component in the form of a rotary lever, which is displaceably guided on a second element, such as a surface of the brake caliper, by way of a needle bearing. The disc brake is characterized in that the inner ring of the needle bearing is embodied as a bearing cage made of plastic, the cage enclosing on its outside an evenly configured ring of sheet metal serving as the bearing exterior.
