ABSTRACT:
A platform spacer is joinable to a rotor disk between adjacent rotor blades having dovetails retained in a circumferential dovetail groove therein. The spacer includes a platform having a flat upper surface sized for abutting adjacent blade platforms to form an inner flowpath, and first and second hooks extending downwardly from the platform lower surface. The first and second hooks are configured for insertion radially inwardly through first and second loading recesses in the rotor disk for retention thereto.
