    Abstract: A braking system (4) for an aircraft wheel (2) comprises first and second brake rotor discs (20a, 20b) axially spaced along an axis (A) and rotationally coupled to the wheel (2), a stator disc (24) arranged axially between the first and second rotor discs (20a, 20b), and a heat shield (34) mounted to at least one of the first and second rotor discs (20a, 20b). Radially outer portions (30) of the first and second rotor discs (20a, 20b) extend radially outwardly of the stator disc (24) to define a gap (32) between the radially outer portions (30) of the first and second rotor discs (20a, 20b). The heat shield (34) extends at least partially over or into the gap (32).

    Abstract: A insulated torque plate foot assembly may comprise torque plate integral to a torque tube, a bushing, and an insulating bushing having a cylindrical structure comprising an inboard face, an inner diameter, an outer diameter, and an outboard face, wherein the insulating bushing coupled to the bushing and the torque plate and disposed between the torque plate and the bushing. The outer diameter may further comprise a first plurality of grooves, cut inward from the outer diameter toward the inner diameter, defining a first plurality of lands. The inner diameter may further comprise a second plurality of grooves, cut outward from the inner diameter toward the outer diameter, defining a second plurality of lands.
