ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a damped brake rod for use in an aircraft landing gear, the landing gear comprising a strut and a wheel and brake assembly carried on the strut. The brake rod connects the wheel and brake assembly to the strut and bears an axial load during braking. The brake rod is laterally damped to dissipate lateral vibrations imparted to the brake rod during braking.
