Screw, cover attachment
Attachment screw for Triumph disc brake caliper covers, front or rear.
This is the small screw that holds the caliper cover in place on Triumph disc brake setups, listed in the parts books under both FRONT BRAKE and REAR BRAKE figures. It's a simple attachment fastener, not a structural brake part, but a lost or stripped one leaves the cover loose or missing, which isn't something you want flapping around near the caliper.

Catalog records show this screw appearing across disc brake figures from the mid-1970s into 1980, on both front and rear brake assemblies. It's cheap insurance to have a couple on hand since these are easy to lose during a caliper service or cover swap, and running the wrong fastener here is an easy way to end up with a cover that won't seat right.
If you're pulling a caliper cover for cleaning or inspection, it's worth checking the condition of these screws before you put things back together. They're small, they're inexpensive, and there's no reason to fight a worn one when new stock is on the shelf.
