Abstract
This invention relates to a bladed rotor for a gas turbine engine which comprises a disc having blade carrying slots in its periphery. In order to seal the spaces between the blade platforms and the disc an annular array of sealing plates is provided. The plates are supported directly from the disc by a rivet, pin or the like which passes through the disc in between the blade carrying slots, in this way avoiding any additional loading on the blades themselves.
