A slipper clutch transmission brake includes a clutch housing, a pin, a slipper clutch outer race rotationally fixed in the clutch housing, a slipper clutch inner race, a plurality of first cylindrical rollers, and a clutch inner ring. The clutch housing has a radial aperture and the pin is disposed in the radial aperture. The outer race has inner bidirectional ramps arranged on an inner circumference. The inner race has outer bidirectional ramps arranged on an outer circumference, a notch for receiving the pin, and a split extending axially through its width. The plurality of first cylindrical rollers are arranged in respective gaps formed between the inner and outer bidirectional ramps. The inner ring is arranged to rotate relative to the slipper clutch inner race when the pin is engaged with the notch, and frictionally engage with the slipper clutch inner race when the pin is disengaged from the notch.
