Filter for a Brake Device

The invention relates to a filter for a brake device, comprising a case, a cylindrical tubular filtering element and a dismantlable axial fastening system. The filtering element is located inside the case and the case includes a cylindrical tubular lateral wall having two opposite end edges, a first and a second. The filtering element sits on an internal surface of the lateral wall of the case. The dismantlable axial fastening system provides axial fastening of the filter when same is assembled in the brake device, axial fastening of the filtering element inside the case, and means for assembling and dismantling the filter. The purpose of the filter is to collect all the particles harmful to health that are released each time the brake device brakes, preventing said particles from being transferred to the air that is breathed.
