    Abstract: A balancing assembly for a rotating component of a gas turbine engine includes a balance weight configured for insertion into a complimentary balance weight slot in the rotating component. The balance weight has a dovetail shaped cross-section and the balance weight slot has a complimentary dovetail shaped cross-section. A retaining ring configured for installation to the rotating component axially retains the balance weight in the balance weight slot. A method of correcting an imbalance of a rotating assembly includes inserting a balance weight into a balance weight slot in a rotating component of the rotating assembly, and installing a retaining ring at the rotating component to retain the balance weight in the balance weight slot in an axial direction. The balance weight has a dovetail shaped cross section, and the balance weight slot has a complimentary dovetail shaped cross section to retain the balance weight at the balance weight slot.

    Abstract: A seal ring system is provided. The seal ring system comprises a segment defining a slot, a pedal along the slot, and an opening offset from the slot. A retention fastener may be disposed in the opening. A seal ring system is also provided comprising a first segment defining a first opening, a second segment defining a second opening, and a retention fastener extending through the first and second openings. The retention fastener configured to allow relative radial movement of the first segment and the second segment. A seal is further provided comprising a seal ring having a central axis, a petal extending radially inward with respect to the central axis of the seal ring, and a sealing disk axially proximate the seal ring. The sealing disk may have a seal shoe configured as a primary seal. The petal may extend toward the seal shoe.
