A brake for preventing rotation of a segment of a transmission line used for actuation of control surfaces of an aircraft, including a retaining arm configured for connection to a fixed element of the aircraft, a clamp and a connection member. The clamp includes a first clamp portion having a first engagement surface and a second clamp portion having a second engagement surface facing the first engagement surface. The clamp portions are movable with respect to each other so as to vary a distance between the engagement surfaces. The clamp portions are configured to apply a pressure toward each other with the transmission line segment being received between the engagement surfaces. The connection member interconnects the clamp and the retaining arm, and is selectively configurable between an unlocked configuration allowing relative movement between the clamp and the retaining arm and a locked configuration preventing the relative movement.
