An anti-rotation extension for a railcar braking system. The extension is connected to a brake beam and rides in a frame located guide channel. The channel is preferably oriented offset from the center axis of rotation of the roller wheels. The extension preferably includes flattened portions to prevent rotation of the beam as the brakes are applied.
