Abstract
In some examples, a brake assembly includes a torque tube supporting at least one spline configured to receive a torque from one or more stator discs. The spline includes a central member configured to couple to the torque tube and a load member configured to receive the torque. The load member is configured to move relative to the central member from an unloaded position to a loaded position when the load member receives the torque. In examples, the spline includes a flex member biased to return the load member from the loaded position to the unloaded position.
