ABSTRACT:
A rotor portion of a gas turbine engine comprises two parts which are clamped together by an annular array of bolts. Each bolt head carries a set screw which retains a balancing weight in a position on the bolt head. The balancing weights are so distributed between the bolts as to balance the rotor portion about its axis of rotation.
