A brake unit for a vehicle is disclosed, including a housing, a hydraulic unit, a braking element unit, wherein the braking element unit forms or supports a braking partner in a braking device for the vehicle. The housing, the hydraulic unit and/or the braking element unit define a main axis, wherein the hydraulic unit moves the braking element unit in an axial direction relative to the housing, in order to generate a braking force, and having a guide unit. The guide unit guides the braking element unit in the radial direction during the axial movement, wherein the guide unit has a master guide and an auxiliary guide, wherein the master guide and the auxiliary guide are arranged eccentrically.

Disclosed herein an electric parking brake includes a pair of pressing portions provided in a caliper housing to convert rotational motion into linear motion to press a brake pad; an actuator configured to transmit power to the pair of pressing portions; and a load control portion provided rotatably between the pair of pressing portions and the actuator, the load control portion applying a uniform load to the pair of pressing portions by pressing any one of the pair of pressing portions that generates a less load during braking operation.
