Abstract
A double wrap brake band is provided for use with a rotating element such as a rotating drum in an automatic transmission or the like. The double wrap brake band is provided with a friction surface on an inner circumferential surface of a band portion wrapped substantially double. The friction surface is provided with an inclined part such that the friction surface becomes gradually closer to an associated outer circumferential surface of the rotating element in a rotating direction of the rotating element.
