Abstract

An abrasive coating on a rotor shaft interacts with cantilevered vanes to form an abradable air seal in a turbine engine. The abrasive coating includes a metal bond coat, and an abrasive layer containing a plurality of abrasive grit particles in a ceramic matrix. The grit particles may be selected from cubic boron nitride (CBN), zirconia, alumina, silicon carbide, diamond and mixtures thereof.
