ABSTRACT:
A segmented combustor wall panel for a gas turbine engine is retained by a clip secured to a post extending radially from the segmented panel. This post passes through a hole in the outer wall support structure and is machined to have a square cross section at a region spaced from its end. A double looped spring clip composed of spring sheet metal is received on the post and has its free opposed ends provided with cutouts to conform to the shape of the square cross section portion of the post to thereby prevent rotation of the clip on the post. The double looped arrangement of the clip provides a fail safe feature in that the clip will retain the post even in the event half the clip should fail.
