Norton Brake Plate complete with Brake Parts
A complete rear brake plate assembly with shoes and hardware already fitted, for drum-brake rear wheels.
This is a complete rear brake plate assembly, the backing plate that carries the brake shoes, pivot, and related hardware inside the rear drum. It shows up in the rear wheel section of the parts books, listed as coming complete with its brake parts rather than as a bare plate you'd have to build up yourself.

On a drum-brake rear end, the brake plate is what the shoes pivot and expand against when you work the rear brake lever. Buying it as a complete unit means the shoes, springs, and pivot pin arrangement are already fitted to the plate, which saves you assembling those pieces separately on the bench.
Our catalog record ties this to appearances from 1971 to 1973, but it doesn't spell out which specific model that covers. The manufacturer listed for this part number doesn't match up with what a rear brake plate actually is, so treat that as a records quirk rather than a maker's mark. Call the shop and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
