Abstract
An aircraft brake assembly incorporating components which are sensitive to heat and to contact with substances present in runway,.e.g., de-icer compositions and cleansing liquids. The assembly includes an external member to shield the components from the liquids. The external member may comprise a rigid or flexible, fluid-impermeable or porous material located to receive and retain the liquids. Heat generated through the use of the brake assembly may evaporate any liquid settled on the external member or at least discourage any liquid from settling thereon.
