DadoStop
Had a look at the blade(s) after the fact, and found out where the significant cascading sound comes from when the brake activates. 12 separate tungsten carbide teeth ripped loose of the blade. Most presumably are due to the spacer blades not being in direct contact with the aluminium brake, so were able to move when the blade was (rapidly) decelerating, and knocked the teeth off as they slid past.
It is a good effort, stopping that much spinning steel on a dime!
