This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) recommends the maintainability features which should be considered in the design of aircraft wheels and brakes. The effect on other factors, such as, cost, weight, reliability, and compatibility with other systems should be weighed before the incorporation of any of these maintainability features into the design.

Purpose:

The purpose of this ARP is to identify design features for aircraft wheels and brakes which would enhance their maintainability.
