A friction brake disc assembly having a plurality of axially aligned annular shaped rotor discs splined for axial movement interleaved with annular stator discs which are splined for axial movement along a mating key member or members that are fixedly secured to a torque tube. The discs have a plurality of circumferentially spaced slots along the periphery, with inserts therein to transfer the load to the discs. The inserts have structural portions thereof extending along the outer annular surface of the discs for engagement by clips to retain the inserts within the slots. The clips are secured to spaced locations along the periphery of the discs to minimize the concentrations of any load transferred from the inserts to the discs.

In a friction brake disc having a pair of annular flat wall surfaces, an inner peripheral wall surface, and an outer peripheral wall surface; said disc having a plurality of circumferentially spaced slots along one of said periphery wall surfaces for engagement by a spline of a torque device; each of said slots having two generally radially extending wall portions and a bottom surface extending between and interconnecting said wall portions; an insert located within each of said slots for reinforcing said slots; each of said inserts having a general U-shaped configuration with two spaced legs and an interconnecting bridging section; each of said legs having an intermediate portion and two side portions; said intermediate portion adapted to abuttingly contact one of said two radially extending wall portions; said side portions being parallel to each other and adapted to abuttingly engage a portion of said annular flat wall surfaces; each of said side portions being recessed on their terminal ends adjacent said one peripheral wall surfaces; a plurality of circumferentially spaced clips along said one peripheral wall surface securely fastened to said disc; and each of said clips having at least one end projecting into an adjacent recess on one of said side portions of said legs to retain said inserts.
