    Abstract: A core is provided for fabricating a blade to include an airfoil. The airfoil includes pressure and suction surfaces, leading and trailing edges extending along the pressure and suction surfaces and a tip shelf with a first sweep configuration and a wall. The core includes channel sections configured to form internal channels within the airfoil by casting processes and tip rods extending from respective portions of the channel sections proximate to a tip shelf location. The respective portions of the channel sections have a second sweep configuration corresponding to the first sweep configuration. The tip rods are configured to extend through the wall at an angle of about 5-12 degrees inclusive relative to a normal angle of the wall during the casting processes to form through-holes angled at about 5-12 degrees inclusive in the wall.

    Abstract: An airfoil for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes a platform section and an airfoil section extending in a spanwise direction from the platform section to a tip portion establishing a tip. The airfoil section has an external wall defining pressure and suction sides extending in a chordwise direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge, and the pressure and suction sides are spaced apart in a thickness direction between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The tip portion includes a tip pocket and a tip shelf extending inwardly from the tip. The tip pocket and tip shelf are on opposite sides of a shelf wall.
