An aircraft wheel braking arrangement may comprise a landing gear structure (122, 222, 422), a torque tube (120) extending in an outboard direction from the landing gear structure (122, 222, 422), and an actuator housing (150, 250, 450) disposed outboard from the torque tube (120). An actuator piston may extend in an inboard direction from the actuator housing (150, 250, 450) for applying a force to a brake stack (131) surrounding the torque tube (120). In various embodiments, a back plate (131) is non-integral to the torque tube (120) and may be disposed inboard of an end plate of the brake stack (131) or the landing gear structure (122, 222, 422) itself may act as the back plate (131). The back plate (131) and/or the end plate may provide a direct thermal path from the brake stack to a landing gear structure (122, 222, 422).
