A transmission brake device includes: a friction plate set configured such that a plurality of rotation-side friction plates; an engaging piston disposed on an axial side of the friction plate set; a clearance adjustment piston disposed on a side of the engaging piston opposite to the friction plate set; a clearance adjustment hydraulic chamber configured to move the clearance adjustment piston; and an engaging hydraulic chamber configured to move the engaging piston; a biasing member disposed between each adjacent pair of the fixed-side friction plates, the biasing member being configured to bias each adjacent pair of the fixed-side friction plates in directions away from each other. The biasing member distributes the clutch clearance in a gap between each adjacent pair of the fixed-side friction plates when a hydraulic pressure is supplied only to the clearance adjustment hydraulic chamber.
